Type 2 diabetes mellitus (to control high blood sugar) when diet and exercise alone are not sufficient
How Azulix 2 MF Tablet Works
Glimepiride is a sulfonylurea that increases insulin release from the pancreas and improves peripheral glucose utilization. Metformin reduces glucose production in the liver and improves insulin sensitivity, lowering blood glucose without usually causing hypoglycaemia on its own.
Dosage & Directions
Take exactly as prescribed. Usually taken once daily with or immediately after food (often with breakfast) to reduce stomach upset and hypoglycaemia risk. Swallow whole; do not crush or chew if modified-release. Monitor blood glucose regularly.
Always follow your doctor's prescription. Do not self-medicate.
