Glimepiride & Metformin Hydrochloride Prolonged Release is an effective anti-diabetic combination designed for adults with Type 2 Diabetes who require better glycemic control.
Glimepiride belongs to the sulfonylurea group and works by stimulating the pancreas to release more insulin.
Metformin Hydrochloride (Prolonged Release) decreases liver glucose production, delays intestinal glucose absorption, and improves insulin sensitivity.
