How it Works?
Glynux 2 Tablet contains glimepiride (2 mg), which functions in the body through the following mechanisms:
• Sulfonylurea Receptor Activation: Glimepiride binds to and activates specific receptors on pancreatic cells, leading to insulin release.
• Insulin Secretion: This activation stimulates the pancreas to secrete insulin, a hormone that reduces blood glucose levels.
• Insulin Sensitivity: The medicine also enhances the body's sensitivity to insulin, improving glucose uptake and utilisation in tissues.
• Glucose Production Inhibition: It may suppress glucose production in the liver, aiding in lowering blood sugar levels effectively.
