Gluconorm-VG 2 Tablet contains the following components:

• Metformin (500 mg): It 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. Metformin also helps to lower the amount of glucose absorbed from the gut.
• Glimepiride (2 mg): It stimulates the pancreas to release insulin. Insulin is a hormone that helps the body to utilise glucose from the blood for energy. In people with type 2 diabetes, there is either insufficient insulin production or the body's cells become resistant to insulin's effects, leading to high blood sugar levels. Glimepiride helps to lower blood sugar levels by increasing insulin secretion from the pancreas.
• Voglibose (0.2mg): It slows down the digestion and absorption of carbohydrates in the intestine. By doing so, it helps in preventing rapid spikes in blood sugar levels after meals.
