HOW GLIMDA MV 2MG TABLET WORKS
GLIMDA
MV 2MG TABLET is used to manage type 2 diabetes mellitus, where
glimepiride lowers blood glucose levels by increasing the amount of
insulin released by the pancreas. Metformin works by decreasing glucose
production in the liver and the amount of glucose absorbed by the
stomach and intestine. It also helps to restore the body’s response to
insulin, and voglibose works by inhibiting the alpha-glucosidase enzyme,
which breaks down complex carbohydrates into simple sugars. Thus,
voglibose slows down the digestion and absorption of carbohydrates in
the small intestine. This leads to a reduction in blood glucose levels
in individuals with type 2 diabetes mellitus.
