Gluconoram 2mg Tablets – Glimepiride for Type 2 Diabetes
Gluconoram 2mg Tablets contain Glimepiride 2mg, a second-generation sulfonylurea antidiabetic agent indicated for the management of Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus. Manufactured by AGP, each pack contains 20 tablets. Glimepiride lowers blood glucose by stimulating pancreatic beta-cell insulin secretion and improving peripheral insulin sensitivity.
