Glimy MV2 Tablet

Glimy Mv2 Tablet contains Glimepiride 2 mg + Metformin 500 mg (sustained/extended release) + Voglibose 0.2 mg. Prescription required.

Type 2 diabetes mellitus in adults, especially when blood sugar is not adequately controlled with diet/exercise and metformin alone; helps control post‑meal (postprandial) and fasting glucose

Glimepiride (a sulfonylurea) increases insulin release from pancreatic beta cells. Metformin improves insulin sensitivity and reduces glucose production by the liver. Voglibose slows carbohydrate digestion/absorption in the gut, reducing post‑meal blood sugar spikes.

Take exactly as prescribed. Usually taken once daily with the first main meal (or as directed). Swallow tablets whole; do not crush/chew (especially if SR/ER). Maintain diet and exercise; monitor blood glucose regularly.

Hypoglycaemia, dizziness, headache, nausea, vomiting, diarrhoea, abdominal pain, flatulence, bloating, loss of appetite, metallic taste

Risk of low blood sugar (higher with missed meals, alcohol, strenuous exercise, or with other antidiabetic drugs); carry a quick source of glucose. Metformin may rarely cause lactic acidosis—risk increases with severe kidney disease, dehydration, severe infection, shock, heavy alcohol use; avoid in significant renal impairment and use caution in liver disease and elderly. Voglibose commonly causes gas/diarrhoea; avoid in intestinal obstruction, chronic intestinal disease, or significant GI disorders. Inform doctor before surgery/fasting and before iodinated contrast scans (metformin may need to be stopped temporarily). Monitor kidney function, liver function, and vitamin B12 with long-term use.

Alcohol (increases hypoglycaemia and lactic acidosis risk), insulin/other antidiabetics (additive hypoglycaemia), beta-blockers (mask hypoglycaemia symptoms), ACE inhibitors (may increase hypoglycaemia), corticosteroids/thiazide diuretics (raise glucose), quinolones (affect glucose), rifampicin (reduces effect), azole antifungals/macrolides (increase sulfonylurea effect), iodinated contrast media (lactic acidosis risk with metformin), cimetidine (raises metformin levels)

Store below 25°C in a dry place, protected from moisture and light. Keep out of reach of children.
