GLIMIKEM MV2 TABLETS (15’S) (15's) Glimepiride 2 Mg + Metformin 500 Mg + Voglibose 0.2 Mg by Alkem1

Composition:
Glimepiride 2 mg + Metformin 500 mg + Voglibose 0.2 mg per tablet.

Uses:
Used to help control high blood sugar in adults with type 2 diabetes when diet, exercise, and lifestyle measures alone are not sufficient. The three medicines work in different ways to improve blood glucose control.

How to Use:
Take only as prescribed by your doctor. Take the medicine with or immediately before a meal according to your prescribed schedule. Voglibose is generally taken just before meals. Swallow the tablet with water and do not skip meals while taking glimepiride. Do not change the dose or stop treatment without medical advice.

Precautions & Warnings:
Inform your doctor if you have kidney or liver disease, heart problems, G6PD deficiency, or a history of low blood sugar. Glimepiride can cause hypoglycaemia, particularly when meals are skipped or alcohol is consumed. Metformin may rarely cause lactic acidosis, especially with significant kidney impairment. Voglibose can cause gastrointestinal symptoms such as gas, bloating, and diarrhoea. Inform your doctor before major surgery, prolonged fasting, or imaging procedures involving iodinated contrast.

Possible Side Effects:
Common side effects may include low blood sugar, nausea, diarrhoea, abdominal discomfort, gas, bloating, indigestion, and headache. Seek immediate medical attention for severe or persistent low blood sugar, difficulty breathing, unusual weakness, persistent vomiting, severe abdominal pain, or confusion.

Pregnancy & Breastfeeding:
Consult your doctor before using this combination during pregnancy or breastfeeding. If you are pregnant or planning pregnancy, your doctor may recommend an alternative diabetes treatment.

Storage:
Store at room temperature in a dry place, away from direct sunlight and moisture. Keep out of reach and sight of children. Do not use after the expiry date.

Important Safety Information:
Take this medicine exactly as prescribed and follow your recommended diet and exercise plan. Do not skip meals. Keep glucose or dextrose available to treat low blood sugar. Because voglibose can delay the breakdown of sucrose, glucose or dextrose is preferred over ordinary table sugar for treating hypoglycaemia. Avoid excessive alcohol consumption. Regular monitoring of blood glucose and kidney function may be required.
