About Avandaryl
Sometimes, eating healthy and being active are enough to lower blood sugar levels. But, like many people with type 2 diabetes, you may also need medicine to help control your blood sugar. You may even need more than one medicine to treat the disease in different ways. ThatÌs where Avandaryl can help.
Avandaryl combines two medicines to treat type 2 diabetesÛAvandia (rosiglitazone) and glimepiride (a sulfonylurea)Ûin one convenient pill:
Rosiglitazone helps your body use its own natural insulin better. This lowers your blood sugar and can help keep it under control.*
Glimepiride helps your body release more insulin.
How Avandaryl helps
Along with eating healthy and staying physically active, Avandaryl can help you control your blood sugar.* Lowering your blood sugar is one of the main goals of managing type 2 diabetes. Controlling your blood sugar long term can help lower your risk for diabetes-related problems.
Avandaryl can start lowering your blood sugar in just a few days. It may take 2 or 3 months to see the full effect on your blood sugar level.
Only your doctor can tell you if Avandaryl is right for you.
