How It Works

Glycomet GP 2 Forte Tablet works through dual mechanisms:

• Glimepiride: Stimulates insulin secretion from the pancreas, helping reduce blood sugar levels.
• Metformin: Lowers glucose production in the liver and improves the body’s response to insulin.

Together, these actions provide better glycemic control, especially in patients with insulin resistance.
