💊 Glimestar 1mg Tablet
Glimestar 1mg Tablet is a prescription medicine containing Glimepiride 1mg, a sulfonylurea anti-diabetic agent used for the treatment of Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus in adults. It helps lower blood glucose levels and reduces the risk of long-term diabetic complications such as kidney disease, nerve damage, vision problems, and cardiovascular disorders when used as part of a comprehensive diabetes management plan.
Glimepiride works by stimulating the pancreas to release more insulin, enabling the body to utilize glucose more effectively. It is commonly prescribed when diet, exercise, and lifestyle modifications alone are insufficient to maintain healthy blood sugar levels. It may be used alone or in combination with other oral anti-diabetic medicines or insulin as advised by a physician.
