उपयोग
GLIBIMIDE M 2.5/400 is an oral antidiabetic combination tablet marketed by Steris Healthcare. It contains Glibenclamide IP 2.5 mg and Metformin Hydrochloride IP 400 mg, two active ingredients that work through complementary mechanisms to support blood glucose management in adults with type 2 diabetes mellitus. Glibenclamide 2.5 mg belongs to the sulfonylurea class of medicines. It stimulates the pancreas to release insulin, helping lower blood glucose levels. Metformin Hydrochloride 400 mg is a biguanide that helps reduce glucose production in the liver and improves the body's response to insulin. This combination may be prescribed when a healthcare professional determines that both medicines are appropriate for a patient's diabetes management plan. Treatment should be accompanied by a suitable diet, regular physical activity, and routine blood glucose monitoring. GLIBIMIDE M 2.5/400 should be used only under medical supervision. The dosage and suitability of treatment depend on the patient's blood glucose levels, kidney and liver function, medical history, and risk of hypoglycaemia.
