Glucovance 500/2.5Mg 30Tab

Glucovance is a medication used to treat type 2 diabetes. It belongs to a class of drugs known as blood sugar reducers, helping to control blood sugar levels. It contains a combination of two active ingredients that work synergistically to improve the body's response to insulin.

Glucovance works through two active substances: Glibenclamide and Metformin Hydrochloride. Glibenclamide stimulates the pancreas to produce more insulin, while Metformin helps reduce glucose production in the liver and increases insulin sensitivity in muscles. This combination enhances blood sugar control and reduces the risk of diabetes-related complications.
