Glycomet GP 2mg/1000mg Forte Tablet SR combines the power of two essential drugs—Metformin (1000mg) and Glimepiride (2mg)—to help manage blood sugar levels in individuals with Type 2 diabetes. This sustained-release tablet is designed to provide 24-hour control of blood sugar, ensuring better overall management of diabetes.
Alcohol can increase the risk of low blood sugar (hypoglycemia) when taking Glycomet GP. Avoid excessive alcohol consumption and monitor your blood sugar levels regularly.
Glycomet GP is not recommended during pregnancy. Women who are planning to become pregnant or who are already pregnant should consult their doctor before using this medication.
It is unclear whether Glycomet GP passes into breast milk, so consult your healthcare provider before using it if you are breastfeeding.
Glycomet GP should be used with caution in individuals with kidney problems, as Metformin can accumulate in the body, leading to potential side effects. A dose adjustment or alternative treatment may be necessary.
This medication is not recommended for people with liver disease or impaired liver function. Discuss with your doctor if you have a history of liver problems.
Glycomet GP may cause hypoglycemia (low blood sugar), which can affect your ability to drive. It is important to monitor your blood sugar and avoid driving if you experience symptoms of low blood sugar (such as dizziness, weakness, or sweating).
Glycomet GP 2mg/1000mg Forte Tablet SR combines Metformin (1000mg), a biguanide that lowers blood sugar by reducing glucose production in the liver, improving insulin sensitivity, and decreasing sugar absorption from food, with Glimepiride (2mg), a sulfonylurea that stimulates the pancreas to release more insulin, especially after meals. Together, these ingredients help regulate blood sugar levels in individuals with Type 2 diabetes by targeting multiple factors that contribute to elevated glucose levels.
Type 2 Diabetes: Type 2 diabetes occurs when the body becomes resistant to insulin, or the pancreas does not produce enough insulin to maintain normal blood glucose levels. Glycomet GP works by both increasing insulin production and improving the body’s sensitivity to insulin, helping to maintain stable blood sugar levels.
Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and moisture.
Store Glycomet GP 2mg/1000mg Forte Tablet SR in a cool, dry place, away from heat and moisture. Keep it out of reach of children and pets. Do not use it past the expiration date on the package.
Glycomet GP 2mg/1000mg Forte Tablet SR is an effective medication for managing Type 2 diabetes. By combining Metformin (1000mg) and Glimepiride (2mg), it helps regulate blood sugar levels through dual mechanisms: increasing insulin sensitivity and stimulating insulin release. With a convenient once-daily dosage and sustained-release formulation, it offers long-lasting blood sugar control.
