How it Works?

Glynux M 1 Tablet comprises two active constituents:

• Glimepiride (1 mg): Classified under sulfonylureas, this component induces pancreatic beta-cell insulin secretion, thereby reducing circulating blood glucose.

 Metformin (500 mg): Belonging to the biguanide category, metformin diminishes hepatic glucose production and augments peripheral insulin sensitivity, facilitating more effective utilisation of insulin.
