Amaryl generically known as Glimepiride is a medication used to control blood sugar levels in people with type 2 diabetes. Glimepiride belongs to a drug class known as sulfonylureas. Sulfonylureas work by stimulating the pancreas to release insulin to lower your blood sugar levels.
Amaryl works by increasing the body’s sensitivity to insulin and stimulating the pancreas to produce more insulin. It may also help slow down the rate at which glucose is absorbed from food and reduce cravings for sweets.
Glimepiride should not be used for the treatment of type 1 diabetes mellitus or diabetic ketoacidosis, as it will not be effective in these cases. It is only indicated as an adjunct to diet and exercise to improve glycemic control in adults with type 2 diabetes mellitus.
Amaryl (glimepiride) comes in the form of tablets used to lower blood sugar levels in people with type 2 diabetes. It is taken orally, with breakfast or the first main meal of the day. Take Amaryl regularly to get the most benefit from it. To help you remember, take it at the same time each day. If you miss a dose, take it as soon as you remember. If it is close to the time for the next dose, just take the next dose at the regular time. Do not double up on doses.
Amaryl and its generic alternative of Glimepiride are available in the following forms and strengths:
You’ll usually take glimepiride once a day. Take this medicine with food. Most people take it in the morning with their breakfast. If you do not eat breakfast, make sure you take it with your first meal of the day.
How long does it take to work? Amaryl should lower your blood sugar within 2 to 3 hours after you take your dose. Its effects can last up to 24 hours. It may take 2 weeks of treatment with Amaryl for you and your doctor to determine if your dosage is working well.
Amaryl is typically used as a long-term treatment. If you and your doctor determine that Amaryl is safe and effective for you, you will likely take it long term.
