What is Gluconorm Vg-2 Forte Tab used for?

Type 2 diabetes mellitus in adults when blood sugar is not adequately controlled with diet/exercise and oral antidiabetic therapy; helps control post‑meal and fasting glucose

How Gluconorm Vg-2 Forte Tab Works

Glimepiride (sulfonylurea) increases insulin release from the pancreas. Metformin SR reduces glucose production in the liver and improves insulin sensitivity. Voglibose (alpha‑glucosidase inhibitor) slows carbohydrate digestion in the gut, reducing post‑meal glucose spikes.

Dosage & Directions

Take by mouth exactly as prescribed. Usually taken once daily with or immediately after a main meal; swallow whole (do not crush/chew) due to sustained‑release metformin. Monitor blood glucose regularly and follow diet/exercise advice.

Always follow your doctor's prescription. Do not self-medicate.
