Uses

Type 2 diabetes (also known as non-insulin dependent diabetes or adult onset diabetes) is a disease in which the blood glucose levels in the body stay consistently above normal. Insulin is the hormone which regulates blood glucose levels. Insulin is produced in the body by the pancreas. Glypride 2 Mgregulates glucose levels in your blood by numerous mechanisms. In case of diabetes, the body may have a deficiency of insulin or resistance to action of insulin at the tissue level, or both.
