Medical Description

Tripath Tablet is an anti-diabetic medicine that contains a combination of three medicines: Glibenclamide, Metformin, and Pioglitazone.

Mode of Action

How Does It Work?

Glibenclamide works by increasing the insulin secretion from beta-cells of the pancreas. It may also decrease the formation of glucose in the liver. Pioglitazone effects may be mediated by a reduction of insulin resistance, increased insulin sensitivity of liver, fat and skeletal muscle cells in animals. Metformin decreases glucose production in the liver; decreases glucose absorption from the gut and increases insulin sensitivity.

Interactions

Interactions with other medicines

  • There is limited information available on the interaction of Tripath Tablet with other medicines. However, since it contains three different components any interaction of these components with other medicines when taken alone may occur with a combination.
  • Tell your doctor about all the medicines, herbal preparations or supplements you are currently taking or might take before you start taking this medicine.
