Gepride M 2 Forte Tablet SR

Product Introduction

Gepride M 2 Forte Tablet SR is an oral antidiabetic medicine used for the management of type 2 diabetes mellitus. It combines two effective medicines, Glimepiride and Metformin, that work together to keep blood sugar levels under control. Glimepiride helps the pancreas release more insulin, while Metformin lowers glucose production in the liver and improves the body’s sensitivity to insulin. This dual therapy provides a stronger approach to controlling diabetes and reduces the risk of long-term complications such as kidney problems, nerve damage, heart disease, and vision loss. The sustained release formulation ensures gradual absorption, giving consistent and long-lasting control over blood sugar levels. It is most effective when combined with a balanced diet and regular exercise.
