Gzide Total 30 Sr Tablet 10 contains three active ingredients that work together to control blood sugar levels:

• Metformin (500 mg): As a biguanide, metformin reduces glucose production in the liver (a process called hepatic gluconeogenesis). It also increases glucose uptake in peripheral tissues and improves insulin sensitivity throughout the body.

• Gliclazide (30 mg): This component belongs to the sulfonylurea class and works by stimulating the pancreatic beta cells to release more insulin. It binds to specific receptors on these cells, closing potassium channels and triggering insulin secretion.

• Pioglitazone (15 mg): This thiazolidinedione activates special receptors called peroxisome proliferator-activated receptors (PPARs). These receptors regulate genes involved in glucose and lipid metabolism, which ultimately enhances the body's response to insulin.
