Glidax M 3/850 offers an intensive therapeutic approach for patients whose blood sugar levels require more than standard dose management.
Glimepiride (3 mg) acts as a sulfonylurea, which prompts the pancreas to release more insulin. Metformin (850 mg) is a biguanide that reduces the amount of glucose produced by the liver and improves the body’s sensitivity to insulin. This formulation uses Sustained Release (SR) technology for the Metformin component, allowing the 850 mg dose to be released gradually into the system. This ensures consistent glycemic control throughout the day while significantly reducing the likelihood of gastrointestinal side effects.
This combination is highly effective for reducing HbA1c levels and managing both fasting and post-meal glucose fluctuations. Regular use, along with a diabetic-friendly diet and exercise, helps prevent long-term complications such as kidney damage, nerve problems, and cardiovascular issues.
