Mefomin-GZ 80 Tablet combines two active ingredients to control blood sugar levels:

• Gliclazide (80 mg): This ingredient belongs to a class of medicines called sulfonylureas. It acts by stimulating your pancreas to produce more insulin, a hormone that helps lower blood glucose levels. Gliclazide works by attaching to specific receptors on the insulin-producing cells in your pancreas, which enhances insulin secretion.

• Metformin (500 mg): Metformin is a member of the biguanide class of antihyperglycemic agents. It reduces both baseline and after-meal blood sugar levels. Metformin works by decreasing the amount of glucose produced by your liver, reducing the absorption of glucose by your intestines, and enhancing insulin sensitivity, which increases the uptake and use of glucose by your body's tissues. Unlike Gliclazide, Metformin doesn't cause low blood sugar (hypoglycemia) in people with type 2 diabetes or healthy individuals.

• Store Mefomin-GZ 80 Tablet in a cool, dry place.

• Keep it away from direct sunlight and moisture.

• Make sure it is out of reach of children for safety.

• Always check the expiry date before using the medicine.

• Include foods rich in fiber in your diet to help maintain healthy blood sugar levels. Whole grains, fruits, and vegetables are good choices.

• Regular exercise can also help manage your blood sugar levels. Aim for at least 30 minutes of moderate-intensity activity most days of the week.
