Glycoex M 60 ER Tablet comprises two active ingredients:

• Gliclazide (60 mg): This is a second-generation sulfonylurea antidiabetic medicine. Its primary function is to stimulate pancreatic beta cells causing them to secrete more insulin. As insulin levels increase, it results in decreasing of blood sugar levels, helping manage type 2 diabetes in patients whose pancreas can still produce some insulin.

• Metformin (500 mg): Classified as a biguanide antidiabetic medicine, metformin acts by reducing glucose production by the liver and increasing the sensitivity of the body's cells to insulin. These actions contribute to lowering blood glucose levels.

The synergistic effect of these two ingredients provides better glycemic control than either component alone.
