Glim 4Mg 30Tab

Glim is a medication used to treat type 2 diabetes. It belongs to the class of sulfonylurea drugs, which work to lower blood sugar levels. Glim is used as part of a comprehensive treatment plan that includes diet and exercise.

Glim works by stimulating the pancreas to release insulin, which helps reduce blood glucose levels. It also improves the body's sensitivity to insulin, enhancing the effectiveness of the insulin present. This medication is considered effective in controlling blood sugar levels in patients who cannot manage their sugar levels through diet alone. Glim is used as an adjunct treatment with other medications in some cases.
