DESCRIPTION

 

Glipotec-MV2 Tablet (Glimepiride 2 mg + Voglibose 0.2 mg + Metformin 500 mg (PR) is a combination of Glimepiride, Metformin and Voglibose. It is an anti-diabetic medicine used for the treatment of type 2 diabetes in adults. It works by increasing insulin release and improving your body's response to insulin (a hormone that enables your body to use sugar). It also prevents the breakdown of carbohydrates to glucose (sugar) and thereby lowers your blood sugar levels. 

 

 

 

 

 

INDICATION

 

  • Type II Diabetes Mellitus : Type 2 Diabetes is a condition that causes an increase in blood sugar levels. In type 2 diabetes, the insulin produced by your body cannot be used properly by the cells to convert glucose into energy. Glipotec-MV2 Tablet (Glimepiride 2 mg + Voglibose 0.2 mg + Metformin 500 mg (PR) effectively reduces blood sugar levels in Type II Diabetes.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

MECHANISM OF ACTION

 

Glimepiride  : Glimepiride is a sulfonylurea that stimulates the pancreas to release more insulin. It binds to specific receptors on pancreatic beta cells, which increases insulin secretion and lowers blood glucose levels.

 

Voglibose : Voglibose is an alpha-glucosidase inhibitor that works by inhibiting enzymes in the intestines responsible for breaking down carbohydrates. This slows down the digestion and absorption of carbohydrates, leading to reduced postprandial (after meal) blood glucose spikes.

 

Metformin  : Metformin is a biguanide that decreases hepatic glucose production and improves insulin sensitivity in peripheral tissues. It works by reducing glucose production in the liver and increasing glucose uptake and utilization in the body's cells. Additionally, Metformin slightly reduces glucose absorption from the intestines.
