Product Description
Glucoryl-2 Tablet combines Metformin (500mg) and Glimepiride (2mg), making it effective for patients with type 2 diabetes who require dual therapy. Metformin reduces glucose production in the liver and improves insulin sensitivity, while Glimepiride stimulates the pancreas to release more insulin.
Together, these ingredients help lower blood sugar, improve glycemic control, and reduce the risk of diabetes-related complications such as nerve, kidney, and eye damage. Glucoryl-2 is recommended along with a proper diet and regular exercise for optimal results.
