Composition

Glimepiride (4 Mg) + Metformin (500 Mg)

Glidum Mf4 500 Sr Tablet Sr 10 is used to manage type 2 diabetes mellitus in adult patients. It is a combination medicine that belongs to the class of anti-diabetic medications.

In addition to controlling blood sugar levels when diet, exercise, or single medicine therapy fails to achieve optimal glycaemic control, this medicine helps improve insulin sensitivity in the body's tissues. The tablet works by targeting multiple pathways to regulate blood glucose more efficiently, which can help prevent the long-term complications associated with poorly controlled diabetes.

You should take this medicine exactly as directed by your doctor. It's important to inform your doctor about any pre-existing conditions or other medicines you're currently taking before starting this medication. If you notice any side effects while using this medicine, notify your doctor promptly. For best results, continue taking the medicine for the entire duration prescribed by your doctor, even if you begin to feel better.

Glidum Mf4 500 Sr Tablet Sr 10 may have the following common side effects:

Nausea
Vomiting
Diarrhoea
Stomach upset
Headache
Dizziness
Hypoglycaemia: This occurs when your blood sugar drops too low, causing symptoms like sweating, shakiness, confusion, and unusual hunger.

Management Of Side Effects:

Most side effects are temporary and generally harmless and are resolved by discontinuing the use of Glidum Mf4 500 Sr Tablet Sr 10. However, if you experience any serious side effects or worsening of any of the symptoms, please consult your doctor.

Stomach upset: Try taking this medicine during or immediately after a meal to minimise stomach discomfort.

Glidum Mf4 500 Sr Tablet Sr 10 contains two active ingredients:

Glimepiride (4 mg): This component belongs to the sulfonylurea class of medicines. It stimulates the pancreatic beta cells to release more insulin into your bloodstream, which helps lower your blood glucose levels by facilitating the uptake of glucose into cells.
Metformin (500 mg): As a biguanide, metformin works in three main ways. First, it reduces the amount of glucose produced by your liver (hepatic gluconeogenesis). Second, it decreases the absorption of glucose from your intestines. Third, it improves insulin sensitivity in your body's tissues, allowing them to utilise glucose more effectively.

Pregnancy

Exercise caution while taking Glidum Mf4 500 Sr Tablet Sr 10 if you are pregnant. It is best to consult your doctor before taking this medicine.

Breastfeeding

Take caution while taking Glidum Mf4 500 Sr Tablet Sr 10 if you are breastfeeding. It is best to consult your doctor before taking this medicine.

Alcohol

Avoid alcohol while taking Glidum Mf4 500 Sr Tablet Sr 10. Alcohol can increase your risk of low blood sugar (hypoglycaemia) and a rare but serious condition called lactic acidosis, which causes muscle pain and breathing problems.

Kidney

Use In Driving And Operating Machinery

Be careful when driving or operating machinery, especially when you first start taking Glidum Mf4 500 Sr Tablet Sr 10. The medicine may cause dizziness due to low blood sugar, which could affect your ability to concentrate.

Allergy

Older Patients

Older patients should take Glidum Mf4 500 Sr Tablet Sr 10 under medical supervision, as they may be more susceptible to its side effects. Your doctor may start with a lower dose and adjust it gradually based on your response and kidney function.

Drug-Drug Interactions

Glidum Mf4 500 Sr Tablet Sr 10 can interact with the following medicines:

Antidiabetic medicines: Other diabetes medicines like insulin or pioglitazone may increase the risk of hypoglycaemia (low blood sugar) when taken with Glidum Mf4 500 Sr Tablet Sr 10.
Antibiotics: Certain antibiotics, such as ciprofloxacin and trimethoprim, can alter blood glucose levels and potentially increase the effect of glimepiride in Glidum Mf4 500 Sr Tablet Sr 10.
Diuretics: Thiazide diuretics like hydrochlorothiazide and furosemide may reduce the effectiveness of Glidum Mf4 500 Sr Tablet Sr 10 and worsen blood sugar control.
Corticosteroids: Medicines like prednisolone and dexamethasone can counteract the blood glucose-lowering effect of Glidum Mf4 500 Sr Tablet Sr 10, potentially leading to hyperglycaemia.
ACE inhibitors: Medicines such as enalapril and lisinopril may enhance the blood glucose-lowering effect of Glidum Mf4 500 Sr Tablet Sr 10, increasing hypoglycaemia risk.

Drug-Food Interactions

Glidum Mf4 500 Sr Tablet Sr 10 may interact with the following foods:

Grapefruit juice: This can potentially affect how your body processes glimepiride.

Drug-Disease Interactions

Glidum Mf4 500 Sr Tablet Sr 10 may interact with the following diseases:

Kidney disease: Patients with impaired kidney function may experience an increased risk of lactic acidosis (a serious condition where lactic acid builds up in the bloodstream).
Liver disease: Glidum Mf4 500 Sr Tablet Sr 10 should be used with caution in liver disease, as it may affect the metabolism of glimepiride and increase hypoglycaemia risk.

Daily Dose
