How it Works?

Glynux 1 Tablet contains glimepiride (1 mg), which functions as follows:

• Binds to Sulfonylurea Receptors: Glimepiride attaches to specific receptors on pancreatic beta cells, which are responsible for insulin production.

• Insulin Release: This binding initiates a cascade of events leading to increased insulin release from the pancreatic beta cells.

• Blood Glucose Reduction: The additional insulin facilitates glucose uptake in peripheral tissues, such as skeletal muscle, and decreases hepatic glucose output, thus lowering blood glucose levels.
