DIAVANCE 5/500MG 30 TAB

Diavance 5/500mg is a combination oral anti-diabetic medication used to manage high blood sugar in patients with Type 2 Diabetes. It combines two powerful active ingredients to control glucose in different ways.

• Active Ingredients: Glyburide (5mg) + Metformin HCl (500mg).
• Class: Sulfonylurea and Biguanide combination.
• Primary Goal: To lower blood glucose levels and improve insulin sensitivity.
• Pack Size: 30 Tablets.

Diavance works through a dual-action formula:

• Glyburide: Stimulates your pancreas to produce more natural insulin.
• Metformin: Reduces the amount of sugar produced by the liver and helps the body use its own insulin more effectively.
• Benefit: Better control of HbA1c levels compared to using either medication alone.

Always follow your doctor’s specific instructions. General 2025 guidelines include:

• Administration: Take with meals to reduce the risk of stomach upset.
• Consistency: Do not skip meals while taking this medication to avoid low blood sugar (Hypoglycemia).
• Missed Dose: If you miss a dose, take it with your next meal. If it is almost time for the next dose, skip the missed one.
