Glimestar-M 1 Tablet PR – Product Description

Glimestar-M 1 Tablet PR is an anti-diabetic medicine used to manage type 2 diabetes mellitus in adults. It combines Glimepiride and Metformin, two well-established medicines that work together to regulate blood sugar levels. Glimepiride helps the pancreas release more insulin, while Metformin lowers glucose production in the liver, slows intestinal glucose absorption, and improves insulin sensitivity.

This medicine is most effective when used along with a healthy diet, regular exercise, and weight management. Consistent use helps prevent diabetes-related complications such as nerve damage, kidney disease, vision problems, and poor wound healing.
