• Glimepiride (4 mg): This ingredient belongs to a group of medicines called sulfonylureas. It works by stimulating your pancreas to produce more insulin. Insulin is a hormone that helps move glucose from your blood into your cells where it can be used for energy.

• Metformin (1000 mg): This component helps manage blood sugar levels in three ways it reduces the amount of glucose produced by your liver, reduces glucose absorption from your intestines after eating and increases your body's response to insulin i.e., it improves insulin sensitivity by increasing glucose uptake and utilisation in your body.

These two ingredients work together in Glycomet-GP 4 Forte Tablet to provide better control of blood sugar levels than either ingredient alone.
