AB GLYMPRD 2MG TABLET is used for the management of Type II diabetes mellitus when diet and exercise alone does not result in adequate blood sugar control. It contains Glimepiride which belongs to the group of medicines called Anti-diabetic agents. It stimulates the pancreas to secrete more insulin (a hormone involved in glucose metabolism). It also makes our body more sensitive to insulin which helps in digesting the circulating sugars (glucose) in the blood, thereby reducing blood sugar levels.
Along with the therapy, your doctor might ask you to make certain lifestyle changes such as following a healthy diet, regular physical exercise and quitting alcohol consumption. Before taking the medicine, inform your doctor if you have any liver or kidney problems. You must also inform your doctor if you have any hormonal problems, genetic disorders (such as G6PD deficiency) or if you are malnourished, starved, on an irregular diet. AB GLYMPRD 2MG TABLET is not suitable for use in patients with type I diabetes mellitus. Consult your doctor if you are pregnant or planning to become pregnant or breastfeeding.
The most common side effect of taking AB GLYMPRD 2MG TABLET is hypoglycemia (low blood sugar levels) which can be identified through symptoms such as increased hunger, sweating, shakiness, weakness or an irregular heartbeat. To avoid this, your doctor will periodically monitor your blood sugar levels and adjust the dose of the medicine accordingly. You can also carry a sugary snack (such as biscuits, glucose drinks or sweet candies) along with you as a precaution and have them immediately if you experience any signs of hypoglycemia. However, consult your doctor if there is no improvement in your condition.
