Glimy M 1 Tablet PR

Glimy M 1 Tablet PR is an oral antidiabetic medicine that combines two active ingredients to manage type 2 diabetes in adults. By keeping blood sugar within the target range, it helps lower the chances of developing serious complications linked with diabetes.

This medicine is taken with food, preferably at the same time every day to maintain consistent levels in the body. The dosage is tailored to each person based on their sugar levels and response to treatment, and your doctor may adjust it over time.

Continuing this medicine regularly is important, even when you start feeling better or your sugar readings improve. Stopping it without medical advice may result in uncontrolled blood glucose and lead to health issues such as kidney problems, eye damage, nerve complications, or even risk of losing limbs. It is most effective when combined with healthy eating habits, regular physical activity, and weight control.

Possible side effects
The most common problem associated with Glimy M 1 Tablet PR is low blood sugar (hypoglycemia). Warning signs include sweating, shakiness, dizziness, and headaches. To handle this, you should eat meals on time and keep something sugary such as fruit juice or glucose handy. Alcohol should be avoided as it can increase the chance of low sugar. Other side effects may include nausea, diarrhea, stomach pain, change in taste, headache, or mild infections of the respiratory tract. Some users might also notice slight weight gain.

Who should not use this medicine
This tablet is not suitable for people with type 1 diabetes, diabetic ketoacidosis, or severe liver or kidney problems. If you have a history of heart disease or other medical conditions, inform your doctor before starting the treatment. Women who are pregnant or breastfeeding should seek medical advice before using it. Blood glucose tests are recommended regularly, and sometimes your doctor may suggest monitoring liver function or blood counts.

Benefits
Glimy M 1 Tablet PR works by helping the body produce more insulin and improving how effectively it is used. This results in reduced blood glucose levels. Consistent use lowers the chances of complications such as nerve pain, kidney disorders, and heart problems, supporting a healthier life when paired with proper diet and exercise.

How to take
Swallow the tablet whole with water during or after meals. Follow the exact instructions given by your doctor or the directions on the label.

How it works
This medicine contains two antidiabetic agents, Glimepiride and Metformin. Glimepiride, a sulfonylurea, increases the release of insulin from the pancreas. Metformin, a biguanide, decreases sugar production in the liver, delays sugar absorption from the gut, and enhances the body’s response to insulin. Together, they provide better sugar control.
