About Tri Glimigem-2/15 Tablet

Tri Glimigem-2/15 Tablet belongs to a class of medicines called anti-diabetic drugs used in the treatment of type 2 diabetes, especially in patients whose blood sugar levels are not controlled by diet and exercise alone. Type 2 diabetes is a chronic (long-lasting) condition that affects the way our body processes glucose. People with type 2 diabetes either do not produce enough insulin or the insulin produced is unable to perform its function in the body (insulin resistance).

Tri Glimigem-2/15 Tablet is a combination of three antidiabetic drugs, namely: Glimepiride, Metformin, and Pioglitazone. Glimepiride works by stimulating beta cells in the pancreas that produce insulin. Thus, insulin helps to remove sugar from the blood. Metformin works by reducing the sugar production by cells in the liver and delays sugar absorption from the intestines. Also, it increases the sensitivity of muscle cells to insulin which enables these cells to remove sugar more effectively from the blood. Pioglitazone works by increasing the sensitivity of liver, muscle, and fat cells to insulin and enables cells to remove glucose from blood more effectively. Thereby, Tri Glimigem-2/15 Tablet helps to control blood sugar levels.

Take Tri Glimigem-2/15 Tablet as prescribed by your doctor. You are advised to take Tri Glimigem-2/15 Tablet for as long as your doctor has prescribed it for you based on your medical condition. In some cases, you may experience stomach pain, nausea, diarrhoea, vomiting, headache, metallic taste, or low blood sugar. Most of these side effects of Tri Glimigem-2/15 Tablet do not require medical attention and gradually resolve over time. However, if the side effects persist or worsen, please consult your doctor.

If you are allergic to Tri Glimigem-2/15 Tablet or any other medicines, please tell your doctor. Tri Glimigem-2/15 Tablet is not recommended for children. Avoid breastfeeding while taking Tri Glimigem-2/15 Tablet as it may be excreted in human milk. If you are pregnant or planning for pregnancy, please inform your doctor before taking Tri Glimigem-2/15 Tablet as it may harm the unborn baby. Tri Glimigem-2/15 Tablet should be used with caution in elderly patients. Avoid alcohol consumption with Tri Glimigem-2/15 Tablet as it may increase the risk of lactic acidosis (accumulation of lactic acid in the body). Drive only if you are alert after taking Tri Glimigem-2/15 Tablet .

Medicinal Benefits

Tri Glimigem-2/15 Tablet contains three antidiabetic drugs (Glimepiride, Metformin and Voglibose) used in the treatment of type 2 diabetes. Glimepiride stimulates cells in the pancreas that produce insulin which helps to remove sugar from the blood. Metformin reduces the sugar production by cells in the liver and delays sugar absorption from the intestines. Also, it increases the sensitivity of muscle cells to insulin which enables these cells to remove sugar more effectively from the blood. Pioglitazone works by increasing the sensitivity of liver, muscle and fat cells to insulin and enables cells to remove glucose from blood more effectively. Also, it decreases the amount of glucose produced by the liver and preserves the functioning of beta cells in the pancreas that produces insulin. Thereby, Tri Glimigem-2/15 Tablet helps to control blood sugar levels.
