Glimestar PM1 Tablet is a combination medicine consisting of three key ingredients:

• Glimepiride (1 mg): Glimepiride falls under a class of medicines called sulfonylureas. It works by stimulating your pancreas to secrete more insulin which helps lower blood sugar levels.

• Metformin (500 mg): This ingredient is a biguanide that reduces the production of glucose in your liver and decreases intestinal glucose absorption. Furthermore, it improves insulin sensitivity by increasing peripheral glucose uptake and usage.

• Pioglitazone (15 mg): As a thiazolidinedione, pioglitazone enhances insulin sensitivity in muscle, fat and liver cells. It works by activating certain receptors (PPAR-γ) that regulate glucose and lipid metabolism.

Each component plays a unique role in managing diabetes, contributing to an overall stabilisation of blood sugar levels in the body.
