Medical Description

Amaryl M 2mg tablet is an oral anti-diabetic medication. It contains glimepiride and metformin as its active ingredients. It is used for the treatment of type 2 diabetes mellitus, a condition in which blood sugar levels rise above the normal range and cannot be controlled by diet and exercise alone. This medicine decreases elevated blood glucose levels. You must maintain a healthy diet and exercise along with the medication. Amaryl M 2mg must be taken as directed by the doctor, in prescribed doses and for the advised duration. It should be taken with meals, specifically with the first meal of the day. Take this tablet at the same time each day to achieve optimal therapeutic benefit. Before using the Amaryl M 2mg tablet, inform the doctor if you are pregnant, planning a pregnancy, or breastfeeding, and provide a detailed medical history. An individual with uncontrolled diabetes is at greater risk of various health complications such as eye, kidney, and nerve problems, as well as heart diseases and stroke.

Metformin decreases the absorption in the intestine and the production of sugar in the liver.
Both of these components increases the insulin sensitivity of the body (which allows the cells of the body to use blood glucose more effectively, reducing blood sugar).
