Glimepiride 1mg and Metformin Hydrochloride 1000mg Tablets

Glimepiride 1mg and Metformin Hydrochloride 1000mg Tablets are an advanced oral anti-diabetic medication prescribed for the management of Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus. This powerful combination works by addressing high blood sugar levels through two effective mechanisms. Glimepiride, a sulfonylurea, stimulates the pancreas to release more insulin, while Metformin Hydrochloride decreases the amount of glucose produced by the liver and improves the body’s sensitivity to insulin. Together, they help in better glycemic control, reducing complications such as kidney damage, vision problems, nerve issues, and cardiovascular risks associated with uncontrolled diabetes.

This dual-action formulation is highly beneficial for patients who are not achieving adequate blood sugar control with diet, exercise, or monotherapy alone. Regular use of these tablets under medical supervision helps patients maintain stable blood glucose levels and lead a healthier lifestyle.
