What is Zoryl M 0.5 Tab 20S used for?

Type 2 diabetes mellitus in adults when diet and exercise alone are not sufficient; helps control high blood sugar
usually as add-on/combination therapy.

How Zoryl M 0.5 Tab 20S Works

Glimepiride (a sulfonylurea) stimulates the pancreas to release insulin and improves peripheral glucose utilization. Metformin (a biguanide) decreases glucose production in the liver and improves insulin sensitivity, lowering blood glucose without usually causing weight gain.

Dosage & Directions

Take by mouth as prescribed, usually once daily with the main meal (preferably breakfast) to reduce stomach upset and risk of low sugar. Swallow whole (do not crush/chew if prolonged-release). Monitor blood glucose regularly; do not stop abruptly without medical advice.

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

Key Benefits

Lowers fasting and post-meal blood sugar
Improves insulin release and insulin sensitivity
Helps reduce diabetes-related complications with long-term control
Convenient dual-therapy in one tablet

Pregnancy

Not recommended; consult doctor (insulin is preferred in pregnancy).

Alcohol Interaction

Avoid (increases risk of hypoglycaemia and lactic acidosis).
