Glador 1 Tablet 15 contains glimepiride (1 mg), and it works on your body in the following ways:

• Stimulates Insulin Production: Glimepiride works by encouraging the pancreas to produce more insulin. Insulin is a hormone that helps your body utilise sugar from the food you eat.

• Increases Insulin Sensitivity: Apart from stimulating insulin production, glimepiride also increases the sensitivity of your body tissues to insulin. This means that it helps your body use insulin more effectively.

  By doing so, Glador 1 Tablet 15 helps to lower high blood glucose levels and aids in managing type 2 diabetes effectively.
