Fasting blood sugar level should be less than 100 mg/dL and post-prandial blood sugar level should be less than 140 mg/dL.

Gemer P2 contains three drug combinations viz., Pioglitazone, Glimepiride and Metformin.

Pioglitazone is used with a diet and exercise program and sometimes with other medications, to treat type 2 diabetes (condition in which the body does not use insulin normally and therefore cannot control the amount of sugar in the blood). Pioglitazone is in a class of medications called thiazolidinediones. It works by increasing the body's sensitivity to insulin, a natural substance that helps control blood sugar levels.

Side Effects:--Pharyngitis, oedema, headache, upper respiratory tract infection, sinusitis, anaemia, GI disturbances, weight gain, visual disturbances, dizziness, arthralgia, haematuria, impotence.

Glimepiride is used along with diet and exercise, and sometimes with other medications, to treat type 2 diabetes (condition in which the body does not use insulin normally and, therefore, cannot control the amount of sugar in the blood). Glimepiride lowers blood sugar by causing the pancreas to produce insulin (a natural substance that is needed to break down sugar in the body) and helping the body use insulin efficiently. This medication will only help lower blood sugar in people whose bodies produce insulin naturally.

Side Effects:--Vomiting, GI pain, diarrhoea, pruritus, erythema, urticaria, morbilliform, maculopapular eruptions, leukopenia, agranulocytosis, thrombocytopenia, haemolytic anaemia, aplastic anaemia and pancytopenia, hyponatraemia, changes in accommodation, blurred vision, jaundice.

Metformin is used alone or with other medications, including insulin, to treat type 2 diabetes (condition in which the body does not use insulin normally and, therefore, cannot control the amount of sugar in the blood). Metformin is in a class of drugs called biguanides. Metformin helps to control the amount of glucose (sugar) in your blood. It decreases the amount of glucose you absorb from your food and the amount of glucose made by your liver. Metformin also increases your body's response to insulin, a natural substance that controls the amount of glucose in the blood.

Side Effect:--Diarrhea, vomiting and infection, Accidental injury, headache and infection, Indigestion and nausea, Nose inflammation.
