Overview

Hovid Glimaryl 2mg Tablet is supplied as a tablet, with Glimepiride 2mg. It is supplied in a pack size of 30s.

No prescription is required for this product, as it is a non-prescription medicine. This page is limited to product, safety and handling information.

If you would like guidance before buying, you can speak to a doctor or pharmacist through an online consultation on DoctorOnCall. Orders are dispensed by a registered pharmacist and delivered to your address.

Directions for Use

Hovid Glimaryl 2mg Tablet should be taken exactly as prescribed by your doctor, usually once daily shortly before or with the first main meal of the day, swallowed whole with a glass of water; do not skip meals after taking this medicine, as doing so increases the risk of low blood sugar.

Dosage

Your doctor will determine the appropriate starting dose and may adjust it gradually based on your blood glucose response, generally starting at a low dose and titrating upward as needed; do not change your dose on your own, and if a dose is missed, do not take a double dose to make up for it — consult your doctor or pharmacist for guidance.

Storage Instructions

Store Hovid Glimaryl 2mg Tablet below 30°C in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and moisture, in its original packaging; keep out of reach and sight of children.

Drug / Food Interactions
