Common Questions and Answers about Glimepiride metformin

My new doctor changed my prescriptions from regular Met to Met XR and added 2mg of Glimepiride. My BG's have been above 300 for last few months and nothing seems to get them down. Doc thinks this change should do it. I've only taken it twice now but since taking it I've been dizzy. Quite enough I need to lay down. I know it says this may be a side affect but does it go away? It brought my BG's down as I said from over 300 3 hrs after eating to 180 just now. So it is coming down already.

Glimepiride [note spelling] is medium-to-long acting Metformin ER or XR [extended release] is long acting Best to consult with your local Pharmacist for an accurate answer on duration.

Dear Doctor, I am a 48 year old Indian male, suffering type II Diabetes since seven plus years. Doctor has advised 1. Trigem-2 (Glimepiride USP 2mg + Metformin HCL IP 500mg + Pioglitazone HCL 15 mg) morning before meal. 2. Cresar H (Telmisartan 40mg + Hydrochlorothiazide IP 12.5mg) Once a day. 3. Voltaneuron (Benfothiamine 50mg + Methylcobalamin 500mg + Pyridoxine HCL 30mg) Once a day. 4. Stresstabs once a day Eventhough, my sugar levels are 150-200 fasting and above 200 pp.

After this happened a couple of times I quit taking the Metformin. About a year later I was then diagnosed with T2 and am now on Glimepiride and have since began having these episodes again. They begin in the jaw area primarily the glands just below my jaws, with a sting/tingling that intensifies and radiates out all around my ears, neck throat and surface of my chest, and my upper torso goes ice cold. This takes place any where from a 30 second to a 3 minute cycle.

Shes already on zoryl-3 (glimepiride 3mg),piodart-15(pioglitazone 15mg), X-met( metformin 500 mg) besides that she is on antihypertensives( ramipril and hydroclorthiazide), allopurinol, hypolipidemic (atorvastatin). Her blood sugar is still high in the range of 240-270 mg/dl. I request you, and Sir/Maam please do take this message into consideration to inform me about the treatment options. Should insulin be started, her glycosylated hbA1c level was 8. And any other treatment options.

Hi Doctor, My wife has consulted the doctor as advised by you and he has prescribed Cetapin 1000 mg 1-0-1 (metformin) along with Glimy-4(Glimepiride)1-0-0-. Hope this is OK.

Clonidine, Glimepiride, Byetta, Metformin, Amlodipine, Crestor, and Losartan HCT. Is it possible that it could be these meds? Please help!! I'm working by tail off and still have a GUT. Thank you in advance.

Thanks for answering, Just to clarify, I take high sugar foods OR I take metformin. Not both at the same time. I think metformin mostly helps with insulin resistance (and it doesnt lower the sugars since they are already normal). My sugars are OK even when I am not taking metformin. They get high from 5.5 to 8 when I eat, but they drop back to 6 or 5, 2 hours after eating. The sugar levels during the shaking and weakness episodes are 4.5 to 5.

Levoxyl,lisinopril,metformin,glimepiride I dont have insurance, went to the doctor in February, he said it was sinus. Please help!!

most of the pain has subsided, but now for the last week to 10 days i have a numbness in my arm every 30 seconds to 2-3 minutes (left arm and hand). i am a diabetic and have been for about 1 1/2 years. i am on metformin and glimepiride, but i don't think that is the problem. hopefully it is just a pinched nerve. it has lasted for 2-3 months with, as i said before arm pain, which has gone away, but now the numbness is constant.

GLIMEPIRIDE 2mg and Metformin Hydrochloride IP 850 mg ( GLIMADAY - HS 2 mg ) 8. Paracetamol (Pacimol) 9. Glimepiride (Trade name Amaryl 1 mg) 10. Voglibose (Volix 0.3 mg ) Kindly suggest us what to do. IF you want to see Angiography report i can post that also.

Hey Scrappy - has your doctor suggested adding GLIMEPIRIDE to your Metformin? I am type 2, have been for 10 years - also only have 1/2 a Pancreas, as I had to have the other half removed due to a tumor in the head of my Pancreas - 8 hour surgery, and 8 days in the hospital, which is where the Insulin shots started. Initially, I came home from the hospital on both types of Insulin.

barbara, I am a type 2 diabetic non insulin dependant and treat with metformin and amaryl(glimepiride) I also used insulin when I was on tx because of the wild swings in levels(sugar) The dosages your hubby is taking were the same as I ..180/1000. Ifound the the major problem with maintaining sugar levels was diet related,i.e. either too much carbs or not enough. I'm sure you are aware of the intake of carbs, however on tx. this is not always achieved .

Trigem-2 (GlimepirideGlimepiride Glimepiride-pioglitazone Glimepiride-rosiglitazone USP 2mg + MetforminMetformin Metformin-pioglitazone Metformin-rosiglitazone Metformin-sitagliptin HCL IP 500mg + Pioglitazone HCL 15 mg) morning before meal. 2.

I've tried metformin, actos, glipzide, and the latest one glimepiride (which seems to have by far the worst reactions thus far). Once a flare hits it last for more than 72 hours. I have had all kinds of allergy test run, nothing. I have had all kinds of blood work done. I have a high sed rate and high c-reactive proteins, high cholestrol and triglisrides, severe sleep apnea. The doctors have checked for autoimmune nothing shows.

Doc has now increased the Metformin from 500mg twice daily to 1000 mg twice daily, but has left the Glimepiride at 1mg once daily (that low blood sugar reading was before the metformin had been incrased) Does my A1C number sound correct? Does the increase in metformin, but staying the same wiht the other med seem logical since my numbers had already come down with the lower dose of metformin and I had had a couple of instances of low blood sugar that caused symptoms?

I am taking some tablets prescribed by my doctor containing (glimepiride USP,pioglitazone hydrochloride,metformin hydrochloride). Is it ok to take these tablets? does this contain sugar?

• Glimepiride – 2 mg once day (for BS) • Coreg – 25 mg twice a day (for BP) • Cozaar – 50 mg once a day ((for BP) • Januvia – 100 mg once a day (for BS) • Metformin ER – 500 mg twice a day (for BS) • Lipitor – 10 mg once a day (for Cholesterol) • Amitriptylin – 10 mg once a day (for relaxation) *BS – Blood Sugar *BP – Blood Pressure He’s been to a numerous amounts of doctors since then, and they have no conclusive answer.

I'm currently taking Metformin and Glimepiride and of course, if my sugar is already low, I don't want to make it any lower by my meds - but if I'm getting conflicting readings, how do I tell? 3) Is it better to always use the same finger for testing or better to switch fingers each time? Of course, I'd rather my fingertips not get sore from testing, but if it's better/more accurate to always use the same finger, I'll put up with a little tenderness.
