Gluconorm-VG 2 Plus Tablet SR combines three drugs—glimepiride, metformin, and voglibose—in a sustained-release formulation to effectively manage type 2 diabetes.

Glimepiride, a sulfonylurea, stimulates the pancreas to release more insulin, thereby helping to reduce blood sugar levels.
Metformin, a biguanide, lowers hepatic glucose production and improves insulin sensitivity, facilitating your body's use of glucose.
Voglibose, an alpha-glucosidase inhibitor, slows intestinal carbohydrate breakdown and absorption, thus helping to minimize post-meal blood sugar increases.
