TRIPRIDE 2MG TABLET 15'S

How TRIPRIDE 2MG TABLET 15'S Works

• TRIPRIDE 2MG TABLET 15'S is an oral hypoglycemic agent, meaning it helps lower blood sugar levels. It belongs to a class of medications called sulfonylureas. Its active ingredient, glimepiride, primarily works by stimulating the beta cells in the pancreas to release more insulin. Insulin is a hormone that helps glucose (sugar) from the blood enter cells, where it can be used for energy. In individuals with type 2 diabetes, the pancreas may not produce enough insulin, or the body may not be able to use insulin effectively (insulin resistance), leading to elevated blood sugar levels.
• Glimepiride's mechanism of action involves binding to specific receptors on the beta cells of the pancreas. This binding triggers a cascade of intracellular events that ultimately lead to the exocytosis (release) of insulin granules. In simpler terms, glimepiride 'encourages' the pancreas to secrete more insulin in response to elevated glucose levels, particularly after meals. This helps to bring blood sugar down to a more normal range.
• In addition to stimulating insulin release, glimepiride may also have some extra-pancreatic effects, such as improving insulin sensitivity in peripheral tissues (muscle and fat) and reducing glucose production in the liver. These additional effects contribute to its overall blood sugar-lowering action. However, the primary mechanism by which TRIPRIDE 2MG TABLET 15'S works is by increasing insulin secretion from the pancreas. It is important to note that TRIPRIDE 2MG TABLET 15'S is most effective when used in conjunction with lifestyle modifications such as diet and exercise. It may not be suitable for all individuals with diabetes, and its use should be carefully monitored by a healthcare professional to minimize the risk of hypoglycemia (low blood sugar).

Common side effects of TRIPRIDE 2MG TABLET may include hypoglycemia (low blood sugar), nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, abdominal pain, and headache. Less common side effects can include weakness, dizziness, blurred vision, and allergic reactions such as rash, itching, or swelling. In rare cases, TRIPRIDE 2MG TABLET may cause liver problems (indicated by jaundice or dark urine) or blood disorders. It's crucial to contact your doctor immediately if you experience any severe or persistent side effects.

• If you miss a dose of TRIPRIDE 2MG TABLET 15'S, take it as soon as you remember. However, if it is almost time for your next dose, skip the missed dose and continue with your regular dosing schedule. Do not double the dose to make up for the missed one.

• Keep TRIPRIDE 2MG TAB 1X15 away from the reach of children and pets.
• Store TRIPRIDE 2MG TAB 1X15 at room temperature.

• TRIPRIDE 2MG TABLET 15'S is generally taken orally and its absorption is not significantly affected by food. Therefore, it can be taken with or without food. However, it's advisable to take it at the same time each day to maintain consistent blood sugar levels.
