How Does It Work?

• Gluformin G Tablet controls blood sugar to a greater extent than metformin or glimepiride alone.
• Glimepiride lowers the blood sugar level and increases the release of insulin from the pancreas.
• Insulin passes sugar (glucose) from the blood into the cells.
• 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).
