Gluconorm PG 2 Forte

Gluconorm PG 2 Forte from Lupin is a strong three-in-one diabetes tablet pairing pioglitazone (a thiazolidinedione) and a higher dose of glimepiride (a sulfonylurea) with a stronger metformin (a biguanide) dose. It is generally chosen for adults with type 2 diabetes who need firm multi-action control.

• Helps control blood sugar in type 2 diabetes
• For people needing strong multi-action therapy

Pioglitazone makes cells more responsive to insulin, glimepiride pushes the pancreas to release more insulin, and the higher metformin dose cuts down on liver sugar production and supports better sugar use by muscles, smoothing levels through the day.

Take as prescribed by your doctor, usually with a meal so the stronger dose is gentler on your stomach. Swallow whole with water.

• Low blood sugar (hypoglycaemia)
• Weight gain or mild swelling
• Nausea, bloating or loose stools
• Headache or tiredness

Mention any heart, kidney, liver or bladder issues to your doctor and avoid heavy alcohol use. Pregnant or breastfeeding women should not take this without medical advice. Report swelling, breathlessness or sudden weight gain.

Store below 25 degrees C in a cool, dry place away from sunlight. Keep in the original strip and away from children.
