Amaryl M 2mg Tablet PR

Amaryl M 2mg Tablet PR is an anti-diabetic medication used to manage type 2 diabetes in adults. It contains a combination of two active ingredients—Glimepiride and Metformin—that help control blood sugar levels, reducing the risk of long-term diabetes complications such as kidney damage, eye problems, nerve damage, and cardiovascular issues.

How to Take
Take this tablet with food at the same time every day. Your doctor will decide the appropriate dose based on your blood sugar levels and treatment response. Do not stop taking it without medical advice, even if your blood sugar appears normal, as this may increase the risk of complications. Proper diabetes management also requires a healthy diet, regular exercise, and weight management.
