Glimepiride 3.00 mg + Metformin Hydrochloride 500.00 mg
Product Description
AZULIX MF 3mg is a fixed-dose combination medication that contains Metformin Hydrochloride and Glimepiride. Metformin Hydrochloride belongs to the class of antidiabetic drugs known as biguanides and helps control blood sugar levels by reducing hepatic glucose production and improving insulin sensitivity. Glimepiride is a sulfonylurea that stimulates insulin release from the pancreas, further lowering blood glucose levels. Together, these two medications work synergistically to help manage type 2 diabetes mellitus by improving glycemic control. AZULIX MF 3mg can be used as an adjunct to diet and exercise in patients who cannot achieve adequate glycemic control with diet and exercise alone.
