Description

GLIMIPACK-M 2 is known as anti-diabetic drugs. It is a combination of two antidiabetic medicines: Glimepiride, metformin. They work by different mechanisms to provide better control of blood sugar when single or dual therapy is not effective. Glimepiride is a sulfonylurea which works by increasing the amount of insulin released by the pancreas to lower the blood glucose. Metformin is a biguanide which lowers glucose production in the liver, delays glucose absorption from intestines and increases the body sensitivity to insulin.
GLIMIPACK-M2 mg shows optimum effects when taken along with healthy lifestyle changes like weight loss, regular exercise, healthy diet etc.
