Zoryl M 0.5 Tablet PR

Product Introduction
Zoryl M 0.5 Tablet PR is a prescription medicine that falls under the category of anti-diabetic medications. It is a combination of two active ingredients used in the management of type 2 diabetes mellitus in adults. The medicine helps to regulate blood sugar levels and prevent long-term complications of diabetes.

This tablet should be taken along with food to reduce the risk of stomach-related side effects. It is important to take the medicine at the same time each day for better results. The dosage will be determined by your doctor based on your blood sugar levels and overall health condition.

Even if you start feeling better or your blood sugar comes under control, continue taking this medicine unless advised otherwise by your doctor. Stopping the medication suddenly may cause a rise in blood sugar, leading to complications such as nerve damage, kidney problems, vision issues, or even serious limb-related conditions. A balanced diet, regular exercise, and maintaining a healthy weight are equally important while using this medicine for the best outcome.

The most common side effect of this tablet is low blood sugar (hypoglycemia). Symptoms of hypoglycemia include dizziness, sweating, headache, trembling, and confusion. It is advised to carry a quick source of sugar, such as glucose tablets, candy, or fruit juice, to manage sudden drops in blood sugar levels. Avoid alcohol as it may increase the risk of hypoglycemia. Other possible side effects include nausea, diarrhea, abdominal discomfort, headache, changes in taste, or respiratory infections. Some individuals may also notice weight gain while taking this medicine.

This medicine is not suitable for individuals with type 1 diabetes, diabetic ketoacidosis, or those with severe liver or kidney problems. Inform your doctor if you have any heart-related conditions before starting the treatment. Pregnant or breastfeeding women should seek medical advice before taking this medicine. Regular monitoring of blood sugar and other tests like kidney and liver function tests may be required during treatment.

Uses
Helps in the management and treatment of type 2 diabetes mellitus.

Benefits
Zoryl M 0.5 Tablet PR works by improving the natural production of insulin in the pancreas and enhancing the body’s response to insulin. This helps to lower blood sugar levels effectively. Consistently maintaining normal blood glucose levels helps reduce the risk of serious complications related to diabetes, such as kidney damage, eye disorders, nerve damage, and foot problems. When combined with a proper diet and exercise, this medicine can support a healthier and more active life.

Common Side Effects

• Headache
• Nausea
• Diarrhea
• Low blood sugar (hypoglycemia)

How to Use
Take the tablet exactly as prescribed by your doctor. It should always be taken with meals to minimize stomach discomfort.

How It Works
This medicine combines two anti-diabetic agents: Glimepiride and Metformin. Glimepiride stimulates the pancreas to release more insulin, which helps in lowering blood sugar levels. Metformin works by reducing glucose production in the liver, slowing down sugar absorption from the intestines, and improving the body’s sensitivity to insulin. Together, they help in better control of blood sugar levels.
