Indications / Uses
SUPHAGE 500MG/2MG is indicated for the management of type 2 diabetes mellitus in adults, particularly when blood sugar levels are not adequately controlled with metformin or a sulfonylurea alone.

Metformin helps decrease glucose production in the liver and improves the body’s sensitivity to insulin. Glimepiride belongs to the sulfonylurea class and works by stimulating the pancreas to release more insulin.

This combination may be prescribed to improve overall glycaemic control alongside proper diet and regular physical activity.
