Glymet 2.5/500mg Tablet 56s (Box)

Glymet 2.5/500mg Tablet is a combination antidiabetic medication containing Glibenclamide 2.5mg and Metformin Hydrochloride 500mg, pairing a sulfonylurea with a biguanide. It is taken orally and is manufactured by Orient Europharma. Some people may experience side effects such as nausea, diarrhoea, weight gain, or low blood sugar while taking this medication. Before starting, it is helpful to know that Glymet should be taken with meals to reduce stomach upset and lower the risk of hypoglycaemia, that regular kidney and liver function monitoring is often needed, and that recognising the signs of low blood sugar is important for safe use. If you are due for an imaging procedure involving contrast dye, or have any kidney or liver concerns, inform your doctor beforehand.

Dosage is individualised based on your blood glucose control and should be taken exactly as directed by your doctor, generally with meals. Your doctor may adjust the dose gradually depending on your response and tolerability.

• Diarrhoea
• Heartburn
• Weight gain
• Skin rash or itching
• Joint or muscle pain
• Low blood sugar (hypoglycaemia)
• Lactic acidosis (rare, but serious – seek immediate medical attention if symptoms occur)

Store Glymet 2.5/500mg Tablet below 30°C, in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and moisture. Keep the tablets in their original packaging, and store out of reach of children.

Glymet 2.5/500mg Tablet typically has a shelf life of around 24 to 36 months from the date of manufacture when stored correctly and kept unopened. Always check the expiry date printed on the packaging before use.

Glymet 2.5/500mg Tablet contains two active ingredients:

• Glibenclamide 2.5mg – a sulfonylurea that stimulates insulin release from the pancreas
• Metformin Hydrochloride 500mg – a biguanide that reduces hepatic glucose production and improves insulin sensitivity

• Known hypersensitivity to glibenclamide, metformin, or any ingredient in the tablet
• Severe kidney impairment, particularly with creatinine clearance below 60mL/min
• Significant liver impairment
• Diabetic ketoacidosis or a history of lactic acidosis
• Breastfeeding, due to the risk of neonatal hypoglycaemia

Glymet should be temporarily stopped before and after procedures involving iodinated contrast media, due to an increased risk of lactic acidosis. It may interact with other medications that raise or lower blood sugar, including corticosteroids, certain NSAIDs, and aspirin, potentially affecting blood glucose control. Alcohol should be limited, as it can increase the risk of both low blood sugar and lactic acidosis.
