Product Introduction

Glycomet GP 3 Forte Tablet is a combination medicine containing Glimepiride and Metformin, used in the treatment of type 2 diabetes mellitus in adults. This dual-action formulation helps lower blood glucose levels by stimulating insulin secretion and reducing glucose production in the liver.

It is best taken with meals to reduce gastrointestinal side effects and minimize the risk of hypoglycemia. Regular intake at the same time each day enhances effectiveness. This medication is part of a complete diabetes management plan, including a healthy diet and exercise.

Uses of Glycomet GP 3 Forte Tablet

• Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus – for better glycemic control when monotherapy is insufficient

Benefits of This Medicine

This medicine offers comprehensive control over blood sugar levels. Glimepiride works by increasing insulin secretion from the pancreas, while Metformin decreases sugar production in the liver and improves insulin sensitivity. This combination helps prevent diabetes-related complications like nerve damage, kidney issues, and cardiovascular events.

Possible Side Effects

Most side effects are mild and resolve as your body adapts. Consult your doctor if symptoms persist.

• Low blood sugar (hypoglycemia)
• Stomach upset or discomfort
• Nausea or vomiting
• Diarrhea
• Headache
• Weight gain
• Metallic taste

How to Use

Take the tablet as directed by your physician, usually with meals. Swallow it whole with water. Avoid missing doses and do not double up if a dose is missed.

How It Works

Glycomet GP 3 Forte Tablet combines two key actions:

• Glimepiride increases insulin release from the pancreas.
• Metformin reduces liver glucose production and improves insulin sensitivity.

Together, they help control blood sugar more effectively than either medicine alone, especially in insulin-resistant cases.
