Diamide (Glibenclamide + Metformin) 2.5mg/500mg Tablet 10s (Strip)

Diamide 2.5mg/500mg Tablet is a combination medication containing Glibenclamide and Metformin Hydrochloride as its active ingredients, bringing together a sulfonylurea and a biguanide within the antidiabetic medication class. If your doctor has prescribed this for you, it's helpful to know that commonly reported side effects include nausea, diarrhoea, low blood sugar (hypoglycaemia), or a metallic taste, particularly when treatment first begins. Because this combination affects blood sugar levels through two different mechanisms, your doctor will typically monitor your kidney function and blood sugar levels periodically. It's important to share your full medical history, including any kidney or liver conditions, before starting this medication. Taking the tablet with meals helps reduce stomach-related side effects and supports consistent blood sugar control.

The typical starting dosage is one tablet (2.5mg Glibenclamide/500mg Metformin) once or twice daily with meals, with adjustments made by your doctor based on blood sugar response. Do not exceed the prescribed dose without medical guidance.
