Glycomet GP 2/850

Glycomet GP 2/850 from USV is a fixed-dose tablet that brings together a sulfonylurea and a biguanide, helping adults with type 2 diabetes manage blood sugar when single-agent therapy isn't doing enough.

• Helps control blood sugar in type 2 diabetes
• Used when a single medicine isn't enough

Glimepiride nudges the pancreas to release more insulin, while metformin reduces the sugar your liver makes and improves your body's response to insulin. The pair tackles high blood sugar from two directions.

Take as prescribed by your doctor, usually with a meal to ease stomach upset and lower the chance of a hypo. Swallow whole with water and try to keep the timing the same each day.

• Low blood sugar (shakiness, sweating, hunger)
• Nausea, metallic taste, or loose stools
• Mild weight gain

Share your full history with your doctor, especially kidney, liver, or heart problems, alcohol use, or pregnancy plans. Carry a fast sugar source for hypos and stay regular with blood-sugar checks.

Store below 25 degrees Celsius in a dry place, away from direct sunlight. Keep in the original strip and out of reach of children.
