How Ziglim M 2 Works
Glimepiride is a sulfonylurea that stimulates insulin release from pancreatic beta cells and improves peripheral insulin sensitivity. Metformin reduces hepatic glucose production and improves insulin sensitivity, lowering intestinal glucose absorption. Together they help control fasting and post‑meal blood glucose.
Dosage & Directions
Oral tablet. Take exactly as prescribed, usually once daily with the first main meal (or as advised). Swallow whole; do not crush/chew (SR metformin). Monitor blood glucose regularly; avoid skipping meals to reduce risk of hypoglycaemia.
Always follow your doctor's prescription. Do not self-medicate.
