Switglim-MV 2/0.3 Tablet is a multi-component medication acting through various mechanisms:

• Glimepiride (2 mg): This sulfonylurea stimulates the pancreas to secrete more insulin, the hormone responsible for controlling blood sugar levels. It does this by binding to certain receptors in the pancreas which trigger insulin release.

• Metformin (500 mg): A biguanide, metformin helps to reduce the amount of glucose produced by the liver, increase insulin sensitivity, and enhance the uptake and use of glucose in the body. These actions are facilitated by the activation of a protein called AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK).

• Voglibose (0.3 mg): As an alpha-glucosidase inhibitor, voglibose works in the small intestine to slow down the breakdown and absorption of carbohydrates. This helps to reduce the rise in blood glucose and insulin levels that typically occur after meals.
