Glycigon-M SR Tablet comprises two active ingredients:

• Gliclazide (80 mg): This ingredient works on the pancreatic beta cells in your body. It binds to specific receptors on these cells, leading to a series of actions that result in an increase in insulin release. Insulin is a hormone that helps your body use sugar effectively. Additionally, Gliclazide increases the sensitivity of body tissues to insulin and reduces the amount of sugar produced by your liver.

• Metformin (500 mg): Metformin helps control your blood sugar levels. It improves how effectively your body uses insulin, reduces the amount of sugar produced by your liver, and increases the uptake and utilisation of glucose by your muscles and fat tissues. Furthermore, it slows down the absorption of glucose from your gastrointestinal tract.
