Description

GLIMP-MP 2 Tablet is an anti-diabetic medicine used to control high blood sugar levels in people with type 2 diabetes mellitus. It is a combination of Glimepiride (2 mg), Metformin (500 mg), and Pioglitazone (15 mg). Glimepiride stimulates the pancreas to release more insulin, Metformin decreases glucose production in the liver and improves insulin sensitivity, and Pioglitazone enhances the body’s response to insulin. This combination helps keep blood sugar under control, thereby preventing complications such as kidney damage, blindness, nerve problems, and heart disease. It is generally prescribed when diet, exercise, and single-drug therapy are not enough to manage diabetes.
