ZEFORMIN-XR 60MG 10TAB

Zeformin XR 60 Tablet is an anti diabetic. It is a combination of two anti-diabetic drugs, namely: Gliclazide and Metformin. Type 2 diabetes is a chronic or lifelong condition that affects the way your body processes glucose. People with type 2 diabetes either do not produce enough insulin or if at all the insulin is produced, it is unable to perform its function in the body (insulin resistance). Due to this, the blood glucose level increases and symptoms such as frequent urination, increased thirst and increased hunger start.

Gliclazide lowers the blood sugar level and increases the release of insulin hormone from the pancreas. Metformin decreases the absorption in intestine and production of sugar by the liver.
