Metride DS 2 Tablet (Glimepiride 2mg / Metformin 1000mg)

About Metride DS 2 mg Tablet:

Metride DS 2 mg tablet is a combination of two anti-diabetic medications, used to treat type 2 diabetes mellitus.

Each uncoated inlay Metride DS 2 mg tablet contains Metformin Hydrochloride 1000 mg (In prolonged release form) and Glimepiride 2 mg.

Metformin is a biguanide antihyperglycaemic agent which improves glucose tolerance by lowering both basal and postprandial plasma glucose. It decreases hepatic glucose production, delays intestinal glucose absorption, and improves insulin sensitivity by enhancing peripheral glucose uptake and utilization.

Glimepiride, an anti-diabetic sulphonylurea, reduces blood glucose by stimulating the insulin release from pancreatic ß-cells and decreases glucose output from the liver. It also increases insulin sensitivity at peripheral target sites.
