Glimepiride + Rosiglitazone

Glimepiride + Rosiglitazone is a combination medication used to treat type 2 diabetes. Glimepiride is a sulfonylurea medication that helps to lower blood sugar levels by increasing the amount of insulin produced by the pancreas. Rosiglitazone is a thiazolidinedione medication that helps to lower blood sugar levels by making the body's cells more sensitive to insulin. Together, these two medications work to help control blood sugar levels in individuals with type 2 diabetes.
