Trivose 2/0.3 Tablet 15 contains three active ingredients:

• Glimepiride (2 mg): As a sulfonylurea, glimepiride stimulates your pancreas to secrete more insulin. This action helps lower blood sugar levels, particularly after meals.

• Metformin (500 mg): Classified as a biguanide, metformin reduces the production of glucose in your liver, decreases the absorption of glucose from your intestines, and enhances insulin sensitivity by promoting glucose uptake and utilisation in your body's cells.

• Voglibose (0.3 mg): Voglibose is an alpha-glucosidase inhibitor that slows down the conversion of complex carbohydrates into simple sugars within your intestine. This action reduces the amount of glucose absorbed from food, thus preventing spikes in blood sugar after meals.
