The tablet u have mentioned contains 3 drugs out of them metformin and voglibose both are known to cause such in some abdominal issues but are good drugs. We can try out different combination or try taking after food if still issues persist need to change medicines. To suggest alternative drugs need sugar reports FBS PPBS HBA1c.
