How OZOMET PG2 TABLET Works
- Glimepiride (Sulfonylurea class)
Helps the pancreas produce more insulin by gently stimulating its beta cells, supporting better sugar regulation. It acts as a secretagogue of insulin - Metformin (Biguanide class, Extended-Release)
Works in multiple ways: it lowers the liver’s glucose production, slows absorption of sugar from food, and improves how body tissues respond to insulin—without causing low blood sugar by itself - Pioglitazone (Thiazolidinedione class)
Enhances insulin sensitivity in muscle, liver, and fat cells by activating cellular receptors—making it easier for the body to use insulin and helping control sugar levels
Together, these three components provide a multi-angle approach: encouraging insulin production, reducing sugar production and absorption, and improving insulin response in the body—all in a single tablet
