Voglibose is an inhibitor or blocker of alpha-glucosidase with common properties identical to those of Acarbose. It has been studied scientifically in the management of hepatic encephalopathy affecting the brain.
Drug Pharmacology

Little metabolic process takes place in this medication and no metabolites or substances necessary for metabolism are yet to be detected. Voglibose aggressively and reversibly stamps down the alpha-glucosidase enzymes; glucoamylase, sucrase enzymes, etc.
