How Claz M Od 60/500 MG Tablet 10 Works?

Claz M Od 60/500 MG Tablet contains the following components:

Gliclazide (60 mg): It belongs to the class of sulfonylureas that causes your body to produce more insulin. Due to the release of increased insulin from the pancreas, the blood glucose level gets lowered.
Metformin (500 mg): It is a biguanide that decreases glucose production in the liver and improves insulin sensitivity in muscle and fat cells. The body can better use insulin to transport glucose into cells, reducing blood sugar levels. It also helps to lower the amount of glucose absorbed from the gut.
