Voglix GM2 Tablet

Voglix Gm2 Tablet contains Glimepiride (2mg) + Metformin (500mg) + Voglibose (0.2mg). Prescription required.

Type 2 diabetes mellitus (when diet and exercise alone or monotherapy is inadequate); helps control post-meal and fasting blood glucose

Glimepiride (a sulfonylurea) increases insulin release from the pancreas. Metformin reduces glucose production in the liver and improves insulin sensitivity. Voglibose inhibits intestinal alpha-glucosidase enzymes, delaying carbohydrate absorption and reducing post-meal glucose spikes.

Take exactly as prescribed. Usually taken once daily with food (preferably with/after the main meal) to reduce stomach upset and risk of low sugar. Swallow SR/ER tablets whole; do not crush or chew. Monitor blood glucose regularly.

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

Risk of hypoglycaemia (higher if meals are skipped, excessive exercise, or with alcohol/other antidiabetics); lactic acidosis risk with metformin (seek urgent care for rapid breathing, severe weakness, unusual muscle pain). Avoid/use with caution in kidney impairment, liver disease, dehydration, severe infection, or heart failure; periodic kidney function tests advised. Withhold metformin around iodinated contrast procedures and major surgery as advised by doctor. Not for type 1 diabetes or diabetic ketoacidosis.

Alcohol (increases hypoglycaemia/lactic acidosis risk), insulin/other antidiabetics (additive hypoglycaemia), beta-blockers (mask hypoglycaemia symptoms), corticosteroids/diuretics (raise glucose), ACE inhibitors (may enhance glucose-lowering), rifampicin (may reduce sulfonylurea effect), azole antifungals/macrolides (may increase sulfonylurea levels), iodinated contrast media (metformin—lactic acidosis risk), cimetidine (increases metformin levels)

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