CompositionGlycomet-GP 2 Forte Tablet is used to manage type 2 diabetes in adults whose blood sugar is not controlled by diet, exercise and one medicine alone. It combines glimepiride, metformin and pioglitazone, three medicines that lower blood sugar through different mechanisms, and better blood sugar control helps lower the long-term risk of complications.
Glimepiride stimulates the pancreas to release insulin, metformin reduces glucose production by the liver and improves insulin sensitivity, and pioglitazone further improves the body's response to insulin, together giving comprehensive blood sugar control.
Take this tablet with your main meal, exactly as your doctor prescribes, and keep to regular mealtimes to reduce the risk of low blood sugar.
Tell your doctor if you have heart failure, liver disease, or a history of bladder cancer, as the pioglitazone component needs particular caution. Watch for swelling of the ankles or feet, and learn to recognise low blood sugar symptoms.
