About Duopil Forte 1 mg Tablet:

Duopil Forte 1 mg tablet is a combination of two anti-diabetic medications, used to treat type 2 diabetes mellitus.

Glimepiride, an anti-diabetic sulphonylurea, reduces blood glucose by stimulating the insulin release from pancreatic ß-cells and decreases glucose output from the liver. It also increases insulin sensitivity at peripheral target sites.

It decreases hepatic glucose production, delays intestinal glucose absorption, and improves insulin sensitivity by enhancing peripheral glucose uptake and utilization.
