This medication is a combination medication that contains two active ingredients: glyburide and metformin hydrochloride. Each tablet of Glucovance 500mg/5mg includes 500 mg of metformin and 5 mg of glyburide. This formulation is specifically designed for the management of type 2 diabetes mellitus in adults, particularly when diet and exercise alone do not provide adequate glycemic control.
Benefits:
-Improved Glycemic Control: By combining glyburide, which stimulates insulin secretion from the pancreas, with metformin, which decreases hepatic glucose production and increases insulin sensitivity, Glucovance effectively lowers blood glucose levels.
-Taking a single pill that contains both medications can simplify treatment regimens for patients.
-It helps in weight management as it can be beneficial for many patients with type 2 diabetes who are overweight or obese.
-Effective management of blood sugar levels can help reduce the risk of long-term complications associated with diabetes, such as cardiovascular disease, neuropathy, and nephropathy.
Main Ingredients & Their Benefits:
-Glyburide (500 mg) is a sulfonylurea that increases insulin release from the pancreas.
-Metformin (2.5 mg) is an abiguanide that decreases glucose production in the liver and improves insulin sensitivity in peripheral tissues.
