Introduction to Metafort G2 CP Tablet
Metafort G2 CP Tablet is a combination medication used primarily in the management of type 2 Diabetes. It contains two active ingredients: metformin and glimepiride. Metformin is a biguanide that helps to lower blood sugar levels by improving insulin sensitivity and reducing glucose production in the liver. Glimepiride is a sulfonylurea that stimulates the pancreas to release more insulin, which helps to lower blood sugar levels.
The combination of these two medications provides a dual approach to controlling blood glucose levels. Metformin addresses insulin resistance, which is a common issue in type 2 diabetes, while glimepiride increases insulin secretion from the pancreas. This combined effect helps to achieve better overall blood sugar control.
Metafort G2 CP Tablet is usually taken orally, with the dosage adjusted based on individual blood sugar levels and treatment response. It is often prescribed when metformin alone is insufficient to control blood glucose levels or when a combined approach is deemed more effective.
