Work mechanism of this tablet
Gluconorm VG 2 Tablet SR is a combination of three antidiabetic medicines: Glimepiride, metformin and voglibose. They work by different mechanisms to provide better control of blood sugar when single or dual therapy is not effective. Glimepiride is a sulfonylurea that works by increasing the insulin released by the pancreas to lower blood glucose. Metformin is a biguanide which lowers glucose production in the liver, delays glucose absorption from the intestines and increases the body’s sensitivity to insulin. Voglibose is an alpha-glucosidase inhibitor which prevents breakdown of complex sugars into simple sugars such as glucose. This prevents the blood glucose levels from rising to very high levels after meals.
