RANOPHAGE G2 is a prescription oral medicine that combines two established antidiabetic agents to help manage high blood sugar levels in adults with type 2 diabetes mellitus. It is typically prescribed when diet and exercise alone are not sufficient to control blood glucose, and when therapy with a single glucose‑lowering agent does not achieve adequate glycaemic control. This combination works through complementary mechanisms to assist in lowering and maintaining blood sugar within target ranges.
Active Ingredient(s) / Generic Name
• Metformin Hydrochloride 500 mg (biguanide class) – helps reduce glucose production in the liver, improves insulin sensitivity, and lowers intestinal absorption of glucose.
• Glimepiride 2 mg (sulfonylurea class) – stimulates the pancreas to release more insulin in response to meals.
Brand name/manufacturer/marketer
• Brand: RANOPHAGE G2 Tablet
• Manufacturer/Applicant: Ranbaxy Nigeria Limited, with active ingredients typically sourced from MSN Laboratories Private Limited.
Indications / Uses
RANOPHAGE G2 is indicated as an adjunct to diet and exercise for the improvement of glycaemic control in adults with type 2 diabetes mellitus. It is often used in patients whose blood glucose levels are not adequately controlled with metformin alone or with other antidiabetic medicines. The dual‑action formulation helps address different physiological contributors to hyperglycaemia by both increasing insulin release and reducing hepatic glucose output.
