Glychek-M+ Tablet is taken orally.

Glychek-M+ Tablet consists of two active ingredients:

• Gliclazide (40 mg): As a member of the sulfonylurea class of medicines, gliclazide stimulates pancreatic beta cells to release insulin. By binding to sulfonylurea receptors on the surface of these cells, it causes them to depolarise and trigger calcium influx, leading to insulin release. It also increases tissue sensitivity to insulin, enhancing its effect.

• Metformin (500 mg): Classified as a biguanide, metformin works by reducing hepatic glucose production (gluconeogenesis), decreasing intestinal glucose absorption and improving insulin sensitivity by promoting peripheral glucose uptake and utilisation. Its action involves activating AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK), which helps regulate cellular energy metabolism.

By combining these two active ingredients, Glychek-M+ Tablet offers comprehensive glucose control through multiple pathways.

• Maintain a balanced diet with low sugar content to support the management of your type 2 diabetes. This can help Glychek-M+ Tablet work more effectively.

• Regular physical activity, such as walking or cycling, can improve your body's response to insulin and help manage your blood glucose levels.
