Overview Gliben PM 2mg/500mg/15mg Tablet

Combiflex DM, a 2mg/500mg/15mg tablet, manages blood glucose in adults with type 2 diabetes. Used alongside diet and exercise, it enhances insulin effectiveness, reducing blood sugar. Follow your physician's prescribed dosage and frequency, taking it with food to prevent digestive issues. Missed doses should be taken promptly unless nearing the next scheduled dose; never double the dose. Overdosage can cause dangerously low blood sugar (hypoglycemia). Concurrent use with other diabetes medication, alcohol, or skipped meals increases hypoglycemia risk; regular blood sugar monitoring is crucial. Common side effects include nausea, diarrhea, abdominal pain, headache, bone fractures, and respiratory infections. Patients with kidney, liver, or heart conditions, pregnant or breastfeeding women should consult their doctor before use. Kidney function tests are typically conducted before treatment. Limit alcohol consumption to minimize side effects.

How Gliben PM 2mg/500mg/15mg Tablet works:

Gliben PM 2mg/500mg/15mg tablets contain glimepiride, metformin, and pioglitazone—three antidiabetic agents with complementary actions. This triple combination improves blood sugar management when single or dual therapies prove inadequate. Glimepiride, a sulfonylurea, stimulates pancreatic insulin secretion to reduce blood glucose levels. Metformin, a biguanide, acts by decreasing hepatic glucose production, slowing intestinal glucose absorption, and enhancing insulin sensitivity. Pioglitazone, a thiazolidinedione, further improves insulin responsiveness.
