Overview Glitip P 1mg/500mg/15mg Tablet SR

Combifit DM 1mg/500mg/15mg Extended-Release Tablets manage blood glucose in adults with type 2 diabetes. Used alongside diet and exercise, this combination medication enhances insulin effectiveness, reducing blood sugar. Always follow your doctor's prescribed dosage and frequency, taking the tablets with food to minimize stomach discomfort. If you miss a dose, take it promptly unless your next dose is imminent; avoid doubling up. Excessive dosage can cause dangerously low blood sugar (hypoglycemia). Hypoglycemia risk increases when combining this medication with other diabetes treatments, alcohol, or if meals are skipped; regular blood sugar monitoring is essential. Common side effects include nausea, diarrhea, abdominal pain, headache, bone fractures, and respiratory infections. Patients with kidney, liver, or heart conditions, or those who are pregnant or breastfeeding, must consult their physician before use. Kidney function tests will be conducted before treatment begins. Limit alcohol consumption to reduce potential side effects.

How Glitip P 1mg/500mg/15mg Tablet SR works:

Glitip P 1mg/500mg/15mg Extended-Release Tablets contain glimepiride, metformin, and pioglitazone—three antidiabetic agents with distinct actions. This triple combination improves blood sugar management when monotherapy or dual therapy proves insufficient. Glimepiride, a sulfonylurea, stimulates pancreatic insulin secretion to reduce blood glucose levels. Metformin, a biguanide, decreases hepatic glucose production, slows intestinal glucose absorption, and enhances insulin sensitivity. Pioglitazone, a thiazolidinedione, further augments insulin sensitivity.
