How it works

Glimepiride: Glimepiride is a third generation sulphonylurea. The primary mechanism of action of glimepiride appears to be dependent on stimulating the release of insulin from functioni ng pancreatic beta cells. In addition, extrapancreatic effects (e.g. reduction of basal hepatic glucose production and increased peripheral tissue sensitivity to insulin and glucose uptake) may also play role in the activity of glimepiride.Metformin HCl: Metformin hydrochloride is a biguanide anti-diabetic, which improves glucose tolerance in patients with type 2 diabetes, lowering both basal and postprandial plasma glucose. Its mode of action is thought to be multifactoral and includes delayed uptake of glucose from the intestinal tract, increased peripheral glucose utilization mediated by increased insulin sensitivity and inhibition of increased hepatic and renal gluconeogenesis.

Precautions

Amaryl M Precautions
Precaution

Hypoglycemia may occur if the patient’s dietary intake is reduced or after accidental or deliberate overdose or after severe exercise, trauma and stress. Hypoglycemic symptoms can be reduced byprescribing a diabetic meal plan. Immediate intervention should be done if signs and symptoms of hypoglycemia occur. Adjust dose of drug according to blood and urinary glucose levels during the first few months.

Warnings

Amaryl M Warnings
Warning 1

Lactic acidosis is rare, but serious metabolic complication that can occur due to metformin accumulation. The incidence of lactic acidosis can and should be reduced by assessing also other associated risk factors such as poorly controlled diabetes, ketosis, prolonged fasting, excessive alcohol intake, hepatic insufficiency and any condition associated with hypoxia.

Warning 2

As metformin is excreted by the kidney, serum creatinine levels should be determined before initiating treatment and regularly thereafter.

Warning 3

Safety and effectiveness of the drug in children have not been established.
