Anti-Diabetic

Gepride 1 MG
Description
Glimepiride blocks potassium channels on the β cells of pancreas. Thus releases insulin. In addition it also has an extra pancreatic activity. Besides releasing insulin, glimepiride by itself improves the sensitivity of the insulin receptor and thus improves blood glucose control. Glimepiride has certain valuable advantages over other sulphonylureas like; Glimeperide causes insulin release in the same phases as that of natural pattern of insulin release. Thus, there is no continuous release of insulin, hence there are very less chances of hypoglycemia. Unlike other sulphonylurea, glimeperide improves or contributes to overcome insulin resistance (extra pancreatic action). This improves insulin sensitivity.
Indications
Type-2 diabetes (NIDDM)
Composition
Each tablet contains:
 

Glimepiride
1 mg

Dosage
One tablet once daily.
Side Effects
The most common adverse effects noted were dizziness, headache, nausea.
Contraindication
Hypersensitivity to Glimepiride

Gepride M1
Description
Glimepiride stimulates insulin release from pancreatic beta cells. It increases the effect of insulin by enhancing sensitivity and efficacy of insulin. Metformin has the potential advantage of decreasing insulin resistance and can be used as first line therapy in combination with sulphonylurea. Studies have shown that addition of metformin to sulphonylurea treated patients with inadequate glycemic control is associated with improved glycemic control, lower post prandial insulin and triglyceride concentration and improved dyslipidemia. All of these changes to decrease risk of coronary heart diseases Metformin in this combination are in sustained release form. This eliminates multiple dosing pattern of metformin and can be given once daily.
Indications
Type 2 diabetes (NIDDM)
Composition
Each tablet contains:
 

Glimepiride
1 mg

Metformin (SR)
500 mg

Dosage
One tablet once a day
Side Effects
Common adverse effects include dizziness, asthenia (generalized weakness), headache, nausea and hypoglycemia.
