Glimer M Forte 2mg/1000mg Tablet PR is a combination medicine used to manage type 2 diabetes mellitus. It helps control blood sugar levels when diet and exercise alone are not sufficient. By keeping glucose levels within a healthy range, it reduces the risk of complications such as nerve damage, kidney problems, heart disease, and eye disorders.
The “PR” indicates it is a prolonged-release tablet, allowing the medicine to work steadily over time. This helps maintain more stable blood sugar levels throughout the day.
Uses
• Management of type 2 diabetes mellitus
• Helps lower high blood sugar levels
• Prevents long-term complications associated with uncontrolled diabetes
Benefits
Glimer M Forte combines two medicines that work together to improve blood sugar control. One helps the body use insulin more effectively, while the other reduces sugar production in the liver. Regular use improves overall glucose balance, increases energy, and protects vital organs from damage due to high sugar levels.
Possible side effects
Some people may experience nausea, stomach upset, diarrhea, mild headache, or loss of appetite. These effects are usually temporary. Rarely, it may cause low vitamin B12 levels or a serious condition called lactic acidosis. Contact your doctor if you notice unusual symptoms.
How to take it
Swallow the tablet whole with water. Do not crush, chew, or break it, as it is designed to release the medicine slowly over time. Take it with or after food, preferably at the same time each day, as advised by your doctor.
How it works
Glimer M Forte 2mg/1000mg Tablet PR contains Glimepiride and Metformin. Glimepiride helps the pancreas release more insulin to lower blood sugar, while Metformin decreases glucose production in the liver and improves insulin sensitivity. Together, they maintain blood sugar at healthy levels throughout the day.
