Uses:
Zoryl M2 is used to manage type 2 diabetes in adults when blood sugar levels cannot be adequately controlled by diet, exercise, or metformin alone. It helps to:
- Improve insulin sensitivity
- Reduce glucose production by the liver
- Stimulate the pancreas to release more insulin
How It Works:
- Glimepiride stimulates the pancreas to release insulin.
- Metformin decreases the liver’s glucose production and improves the body’s sensitivity to insulin, thereby lowering blood sugar levels more effectively.
Dosage:
- Typically taken once or twice daily, with meals to reduce gastrointestinal side effects
- The dosage is tailored based on blood sugar levels, patient response, and doctor’s guidance
Common Side Effects:
- Nausea, metallic taste, or diarrhea (mainly from metformin)
- Hypoglycemia (low blood sugar)—more common with glimepiride, especially if meals are skipped
- Weight gain (from glimepiride)
- Stomach upset, bloating
Serious Side Effects (rare):
- Lactic acidosis (a rare but serious complication from metformin; more likely in kidney/liver impairment)
- Severe hypoglycemia
- Allergic reactions (rash, swelling, breathing difficulty)
Precautions:
- Not recommended for type 1 diabetes or diabetic ketoacidosis
- Use with caution in people with kidney or liver disease
- Avoid excessive alcohol intake (increases risk of lactic acidosis and hypoglycemia)
- Monitor blood sugar levels regularly, along with kidney function tests
Drug Interactions:
- Other anti-diabetic drugs (risk of low sugar)
- Beta-blockers (may mask signs of hypoglycemia)
- Diuretics, corticosteroids (can increase blood sugar)
- Alcohol (increases risk of lactic acidosis and hypoglycemia)
