About Gcomet MV 2.3 Tablet 15's

Gcomet MV 2.3 Tablet 15's is a combination of anti-diabetic drugs used to treat type 2 diabetes mellitus. Type 2 diabetes is a chronic or lifelong condition that affects the way your body processes glucose. The blood glucose level increases and causes symptoms such as frequent urination, increased thirst, and increased hunger; hence, people with type 2 diabetes either do not produce enough insulin or, if at all the insulin is produced, it is unable to perform its function in the body (insulin resistance). 

Gcomet MV 2.3 Tablet 15's is a combination of three antidiabetic drugs: Glimepiride, Metformin and Voglibose. Glimepiride, which is a 'sulfonylurea', acts by increasing the amount of insulin released by the pancreas. Together, these prevent the blood glucose levels from rising to very high levels, thus keeping your diabetes under control.

Gcomet MV 2.3 Tablet 15's should be taken with food to avoid an upset stomach. Based on your medical condition, your doctor will decide for how long you need to take Gcomet MV 2.3 Tablet 15's.
