How Sulmet Tablet works
Sulmet 5 mg/500 mg/2 mg Tablet is a combination of three antidiabetic medicines: Glibenclamide, Metformin and Rosiglitazone. They work by different mechanisms to provide better control of blood sugar when single or dual therapy is not effective. Glibenclamide is a sulfonylurea which works by increasing the amount of insulin released by the pancreas in order to lower the blood glucose. Metformin is a biguanide. It works by lowering glucose production in the liver, delaying glucose absorption from intestines and increasing the body's sensitivity to insulin. Rosiglitazone is a thiazolidinedione which further increases insulin sensitivity. Glibenclamide, Metformin and Rosiglitazone.
