Description

Glimp 1 tablet helps control blood sugar levels in type 2 diabetes mellitus, especially when changes to your diet and exercise alone are not enough. Its active ingredient is glimepiride, which is a type of antidiabetic medication. This condition, type 2 diabetes, occurs when your body's cells do not respond normally to the hormone insulin, resulting in higher blood sugar levels. Uncontrolled high blood sugar can lead to serious long-term health problems.

By boosting insulin production, Glimp 1 tablet helps lower elevated blood sugar levels, thereby helping you maintain better glycemic control. It works by targeting the pancreas to encourage the release of a greater quantity of insulin into your bloodstream. Insulin's primary function is to regulate how your body utilizes sugar by facilitating its movement from the blood into the cells, where it is used as a source of energy. This medicine should be taken strictly as directed by your doctor, usually after a meal to help minimize potential side effects.

It is crucial that you adhere to the prescribed duration for taking this medicine. It is an ongoing treatment for a chronic condition, and you must not discontinue this medicine abruptly without consulting your doctor, even if your symptoms seem to improve. Common side effects you might experience include feelings of nausea, dizziness, headache, and weight gain. There is also a risk of low blood sugar, known as hypoglycaemia, which manifests as extreme hunger, shakiness, confusion, or reduced alertness. It is essential to discuss any persistent or concerning side effects with your doctor.
