About Glycomet Trio 1 Tablet SR

Glycomet Trio 1 Tablet SR is a triple combination anti-diabetic medicine used for the management of Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus in adults.
It helps improve blood sugar control when diet, exercise, and dual therapy (two anti-diabetic medicines) are not sufficient.
By combining three complementary agents, it effectively controls fasting and post-meal blood glucose levels and prevents long-term diabetic complications.

How It Works

This medicine combines three active ingredients that target different mechanisms of blood sugar control:

• Glimepiride (1mg): A sulfonylurea that increases insulin release from the pancreas.

• Metformin (500mg): A biguanide that reduces glucose production in the liver and improves insulin sensitivity.

• Voglibose (0.2mg): An alpha-glucosidase inhibitor that slows down carbohydrate breakdown and absorption in the intestine, preventing sharp post-meal sugar spikes.

The sustained-release (SR) formulation ensures a gradual and steady release of medicine throughout the day.
