Medicine information
उपयोग
GLIMITERIS M1 FORTE is an oral antidiabetic combination tablet marketed by Steris Healthcare. It contains Glimepiride 1 mg and Metformin Hydrochloride SR 1000 mg, two active ingredients that work through complementary mechanisms to support blood glucose management in adults with type 2 diabetes mellitus. Glimepiride 1 mg belongs to the sulfonylurea class of medicines. It helps lower blood glucose levels by stimulating the pancreas to release insulin. Metformin Hydrochloride SR 1000 mg belongs to the biguanide class of medicines. Its sustained-release formulation gradually releases the medicine and helps reduce glucose production in the liver while improving the body's response to insulin. This combination may be prescribed when a healthcare professional determines that both medicines are appropriate for an individual's diabetes management plan. Treatment is generally supported by a balanced diet, regular physical activity, and routine blood glucose monitoring. GLIMITERIS M1 FORTE should be used only under medical supervision. The appropriate dosage and suitability depend on the patient's blood glucose levels, medical history, kidney function, and response to treatment.
