How it works

Glifil M 2.5mg/250mg Tablet is a combination of two antidiabetic medicines: Glibenclamide and Metformin. 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 which works by lowering glucose production in the liver, delaying glucose absorption from intestines and increasing the body's sensitivity to insulin.Glifil M 2.5mg/250mg Tablet is a combination of two antidiabetic medicines: Glibenclamide and Metformin.
