Zoryl-M 2 Tablet PR

Product introduction
Zoryl-M 2 Tablet PR is an anti-diabetic medicine that combines two active ingredients used for the management of type 2 diabetes mellitus in adults. It helps in regulating blood sugar levels and prevents complications associated with diabetes.

This medicine should always be taken with food, preferably at the same time each day, to ensure maximum effectiveness. Your doctor will determine the appropriate dose depending on your blood sugar readings and overall response to the treatment.

It is important to continue taking this medication even if you feel well or your blood sugar appears to be under control. Stopping the medicine suddenly without consulting your doctor can cause your blood sugar levels to rise, increasing the risk of serious problems like kidney issues, nerve damage, vision loss, or even complications that may lead to limb amputation. Along with the medication, following a balanced diet, regular exercise, and maintaining a healthy weight are essential for proper diabetes management.

Low blood sugar, or hypoglycemia, is the most commonly reported side effect of this medicine. Symptoms may include dizziness, sweating, headache, shaking, and weakness. It’s crucial to recognize these warning signs and act quickly by consuming a fast-acting source of sugar, like sweets or fruit juice. To avoid hypoglycemia, do not skip meals and avoid alcohol while taking this medicine. Other possible side effects include nausea, diarrhea, stomach discomfort, changes in taste, weight gain, headache, and mild respiratory infections.

Zoryl-M 2 Tablet PR should not be used in individuals with type 1 diabetes, diabetic ketoacidosis, or severe kidney or liver problems. Before starting this medicine, inform your doctor if you have a history of heart-related issues. Pregnant or breastfeeding women should seek medical advice before use. Regular monitoring of blood sugar levels and occasional blood tests for kidney, liver, and blood cell health may be recommended.

Uses of Zoryl-M 2 Tablet PR
This medicine is used in the treatment of type 2 diabetes mellitus to help maintain proper blood sugar control.

Benefits
Zoryl-M 2 Tablet PR helps the pancreas produce more insulin, which works to lower blood sugar levels. Proper control of glucose levels significantly reduces the risk of diabetes-related complications such as kidney failure, nerve damage, eye problems, and loss of limbs. When combined with healthy eating habits and exercise, this medicine helps you lead a healthier and more active life.

Common side effects

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

Most side effects are temporary and improve as your body adjusts to the medicine. Consult your doctor if they persist or become troublesome.

How to take Zoryl-M 2 Tablet PR
Take the medicine as directed by your doctor. It must be taken with food to minimize stomach upset.

How it works
This medicine contains two active components: Glimepiride and Metformin.

• Glimepiride (a sulfonylurea) helps the pancreas release more insulin.
• Metformin (a biguanide) reduces glucose production in the liver, slows sugar absorption from the gut, and increases the body’s sensitivity to insulin.

Safety information

• Alcohol: Avoid alcohol as it may increase the risk of severe low blood sugar.
• Pregnancy: Use during pregnancy should be based on your doctor’s recommendation as it may not be entirely safe for the unborn baby.
• Breastfeeding: Not recommended while breastfeeding, as the medicine can pass into breast milk and harm the baby.
• Driving: If you experience low or high blood sugar symptoms, avoid driving or operating machinery.
• Kidney: Dose adjustments may be required for patients with kidney problems. It is not recommended for those with severe kidney impairment.
• Liver: Caution is advised for patients with liver issues. Severe liver disease patients should avoid this medicine.

Missed dose
If you forget to take a dose, take it as soon as you remember. If it is almost time for your next dose, skip the missed dose and continue with your regular schedule. Do not take two doses together.
