About This Medicine
Product description & overview
K-Glim-M 2mg Tablet PR is a combination oral hypoglycemic agent containing Glimepiride 2mg and Metformin 500mg, indicated for the management of type 2 diabetes mellitus. Glimepiride, a sulfonylurea class drug, stimulates pancreatic beta cells to enhance insulin secretion, thereby improving glycemic control. Metformin, a biguanide, primarily acts by decreasing hepatic glucose production and improving peripheral insulin sensitivity, resulting in reduced blood glucose levels. The combination of these two agents provides complementary mechanisms of action, making K-Glim-M effective for patients inadequately controlled by diet and exercise alone or monotherapy. It is recommended to be used alongside lifestyle modifications such as diet and physical activity. The extended-release formulation ensures a sustained therapeutic effect with improved patient compliance and reduced gastrointestinal side effects commonly associated with Metformin. K-Glim-M should be administered under medical supervision, with regular monitoring of blood glucose levels, renal function, and potential adverse effects such as hypoglycemia, lactic acidosis, or gastrointestinal disturbances. Contraindications include type 1 diabetes, diabetic ketoacidosis, severe renal or hepatic impairment, and conditions predisposing to hypoxia. Dose adjustments may be necessary based on patient response and tolerability.

About Glimepiride
Glimepiride is an oral hypoglycemic agent used to manage blood sugar levels in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus. It works by stimulating the pancreas to release more insulin, thereby lowering blood glucose levels and preventing the symptoms associated with diabetes. Glimepiride is often prescribed alongside diet and exercise to enhance glycemic control and reduce the risk of diabetes-related complications, such as kidney damage and neuropathy. In summary, Glimepiride is an essential medication for controlling blood sugar levels in type 2 diabetes patients.
How It Works
