Glimestar M4 Forte

Glimestar M4 Forte from Mankind is a high-strength combination tablet of Glimepiride and Metformin. It is reserved for adults with type 2 diabetes who need firm control over both fasting and after-meal sugar.

• Advanced type 2 diabetes
• When lower combinations no longer control sugar
• Helps improve long-term sugar (HbA1c)

Glimepiride pushes the pancreas to release more insulin. Metformin lowers the sugar made by the liver and improves the body's response to insulin. The double action covers both meal-time and fasting sugar.

Take as prescribed by your doctor. Swallow with a glass of water along with the first main meal of the day. Do not skip meals; carry sugar candy in case of sudden dizziness or sweating.

• Low blood sugar (sweating, shakiness, hunger)
• Stomach upset, nausea, diarrhoea
• Metallic taste
• Weight changes
• Vitamin B12 deficiency on long use

Avoid in severe kidney, liver or heart failure. Avoid alcohol. Pause during major illness, dehydration or before contrast scans, as advised. Have regular kidney tests during long-term use.

Keep below 25°C in a cool, dry place away from sunlight and moisture. Keep in the original strip and out of children's reach.
