Getryl 2mg 20 tablets is a medication containing glimepiride, an anti-diabetic drug used to manage blood sugar levels in adults with type 2 diabetes. 

Drug information

  • Active ingredient: Glimepiride, which belongs to the sulfonylurea class of drugs.
  • Mechanism of action: Glimepiride works primarily by stimulating the pancreas to release more insulin. It also increases the body's sensitivity to insulin, which helps lower blood glucose levels.
  • Indications: It is used as an adjunct to diet and exercise for type 2 diabetes. It may also be used in combination with other anti-diabetic medications like metformin or insulin for better glycemic control.
  • Dosage: The typical starting dose is 1–2 mg once daily, taken with breakfast or the first main meal of the day. Your doctor will determine the appropriate dose and may adjust it over time based on your blood sugar response, with a maximum recommended dose of 8 mg per day.

Common side effects

  • Low blood sugar (hypoglycemia)
  • Headache
  • Nausea and vomiting
  • Dizziness and weakness
  • Unexplained weight gain
  • Abdominal pain or diarrhea
  • Temporary visual impairment, especially at the start of treatment 

Important warnings and precautions

  • Hypoglycemia risk: The most significant risk with Getryl is low blood sugar. This risk is higher in debilitated or malnourished patients, those with kidney or liver problems, and with certain lifestyle factors like alcohol consumption.
  • Allergy: Getryl is chemically similar to sulfa drugs. Individuals with a known allergy to sulfonamides should not take this medication.
  • Pregnancy and breastfeeding: It is generally not recommended for use during pregnancy or while breastfeeding. Consult your doctor for alternative options.
  • Other health conditions: Patients with liver disease, kidney disease, or G6PD deficiency may require a lower dose and careful monitoring.
  • Drug interactions: Getryl can interact with several other medications, including NSAIDs, certain antibiotics, and alcohol, which can affect its blood sugar-lowering effect.
