GLIMITERIS MP 1 

Glimepiride (1mg), Metformin SR (500mg) & Pioglitazone (15mg)

Introduction

GLIMITERIS MP 1 is a combination medication that features Glimepiride 1 mg, Metformin SR (Sustained Release) 500 mg, and Pioglitazone 15 mg. This triple-drug formulation is designed for the management of type 2 diabetes mellitus. Each component of GLIMITERIS MP 1 works synergistically to improve blood glucose control. Glimepiride stimulates insulin secretion, Metformin enhances insulin sensitivity, and Pioglitazone helps reduce insulin resistance.

Uses

• Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus: GLIMITERIS MP 1 is used to manage type 2 diabetes when diet and exercise alone are insufficient. It is particularly useful for individuals who require a combination of different mechanisms to achieve optimal blood glucose control.
• Blood Glucose Control: The combination of Glimepiride, Metformin, and Pioglitazone effectively lowers blood glucose levels by increasing insulin secretion, improving insulin sensitivity, and reducing insulin resistance.
• Reduction of HbA1c: This formulation helps reduce HbA1c levels, providing better long-term glycemic control and reducing the risk of diabetes-related complications.
• Prevention of Complications: By effectively managing blood glucose levels, GLIMITERIS MP 1 helps prevent or delay complications associated with diabetes, including cardiovascular issues, neuropathy, and nephropathy.

Dosage

• Standard Dosage: The recommended dosage is one tablet of GLIMITERIS MP 1 taken once daily with meals. The dosage may be adjusted based on individual blood glucose levels and tolerance, as guided by a healthcare provider.
• Administration: Down a full glass of water and swallow the tablet whole. It is best taken with meals to minimize gastrointestinal side effects and ensure optimal absorption.
• Dosage missing: Take the missing dose as soon as you remember it. If the next dose is almost due, skip the missing one and go back to your regular schedule. Never take two doses to make up for one that you missed.

Side Effects

• Common Side Effects: Common side effects include gastrointestinal issues such as nausea, diarrhea, abdominal discomfort, and headache. 
• Serious Side Effects: Serious side effects may include hypoglycemia (low blood sugar), lactic acidosis (associated with Metformin), and fluid retention or heart failure symptoms (associated with Pioglitazone). Symptoms of hypoglycemia include shakiness, sweating, and confusion. Lactic acidosis symptoms include muscle pain, rapid breathing, and abdominal discomfort. If any severe symptoms occur, seek medical attention immediately.
• Long-Term Use Effects: Prolonged use of GLIMITERIS MP 1 may lead to potential side effects such as weight gain, edema, and bone fractures. Regular monitoring and follow-up with a healthcare provider are recommended to manage these risks.

Price

The cost of GLIMITERIS MP 1 varies based on the location and pharmacy. In general, the price can range from INR 800 to INR 1200 for a month's supply, depending on the brand and purchasing location. Prices may also vary based on insurance coverage and discounts available at different pharmacies.

Conclusion

GLIMITERIS MP 1 provides a comprehensive approach to managing type 2 diabetes by combining Glimepiride, Metformin SR, and Pioglitazone in one tablet. This combination therapy addresses multiple pathways involved in glucose regulation, making it effective for patients who need enhanced control over their blood sugar levels.
