Diameril 1Mg Tablets 30'S

glimepiride
sulphonyl urea blood sugar lowering agent
stimulates insulin release from pancreatic beta cells

Glimepiride is a sulfonylurea blood-sugar-lowering agent. It stimulates insulin release from pancreatic beta cells. This release mainly relies on improved responsiveness of these cells to physiological glucose stimulus. Glimepiride increases the normal action of insulin on peripheral glucose uptake. It also mim- ics such action as well as the glucose output of the liver. A single dose of Diameril can ensure good metabolic control over 24 hours. When patients don't respond sufficiently to the maximum dose of Diameril, a combination with an oral antidiabetic containing metformin or with insulin improves meta- bolic control.
