A sulfonylurea drug that stimulates the pancreas to release more insulin.
A biguanide that improves insulin sensitivity and reduces glucose production by the liver.

Type 2 diabetes mellitus when diet and exercise alone are not enough to control blood sugar levels.
Used in patients who need multiple medications to manage their blood sugar effectively.
This combination drug works through three different mechanisms to lower blood glucose levels. Glimepiride stimulates insulin release from the pancreas. Metformin reduces glucose production in the liver and increases insulin sensitivity in peripheral tissues. Pioglitazone enhances insulin sensitivity by improving the way cells respond to insulin.
