Overview

Amaryl 2mg Tablet contains Glimepiride 2mg and is presented as a tablet. It is supplied in pack sizes of 15s and 30s.

It is classified as a non-prescription medicine, so no prescription is needed to order it. Under Malaysian rules for medicine information, this page carries product, safety and handling information only.

You can consult a doctor or pharmacist online on DoctorOnCall about this product before or after you order. Every order is checked by a registered pharmacist before it is delivered. Always read the label and the leaflet supplied with the pack.

Directions for Use

Take Amaryl 2mg Tablet once daily, generally shortly before or with the first main meal of the day, swallowing the tablet whole with a glass of water. Take it at the same time each day as prescribed, and do not skip meals after taking a dose, as this increases the risk of low blood sugar.

Dosage

The starting dose and any subsequent adjustments are determined by your doctor based on your blood glucose readings, response to treatment, and other health factors; Amaryl 2mg Tablet is often used as a step up from a lower starting dose. Do not change your dose without medical advice, and do not double a dose if one is missed.

Storage Instructions

Store below 30°C in a dry place away from direct sunlight and moisture. Keep the tablets in their original blister packaging until ready to use, and keep out of reach and sight of children.

Drug / Food Interactions
