Frequently asked questions about Glyburide/Metformin

What is glyburide-metformin?

Glyburide-metformin (generic Glucovance) is a prescription medication used to treat type 2 diabetes.

Nearly 1 in 10 Americans has diabetes, a condition characterized by elevated levels of glucose - or sugar - in the blood. If left untreated, elevated glucose levels can wreak havoc on your body, causing kidney damage, eye problems, sexual dysfunction, and more. Doctors prescribe drugs like glyburide-metformin to help keep patients’ blood glucose - and their diabetes symptoms - in check. Glyburide-metformin is only used to treat type 2 diabetes and is not approved for other forms of the condition.

As with many diabetes medications, glyburide-metformin works best when taken alongside lifestyle changes that naturally stabilize your insulin levels, including diet, exercise, and weight loss.

What is glyburide-metformin used to treat?

Glyburide-metformin is used to treat type 2 diabetes. It is not prescribed to treat type 1 diabetes.

How does glyburide-metformin work?

Glyburide-metformin is a combination drug comprised of both glyburide and metformin.

Glyburide belongs to a class of medications known as sulfonylureas. These drugs help lower your blood sugar by causing the pancreas to produce insulin and helping your body use and manage insulin more efficiently. Insulin is the chemical that breaks down and regulates sugar in your body.

Metformin, on the other hand, belongs to a family of medications known as biguanides. Biguanides control the amount of glucose in your blood. They help you use insulin more efficiently by limiting the amount of glucose you absorb from food and the amount your liver naturally produces.

What are common side effects of glyburide-metformin?

While adverse reactions to glyburide-metformin are uncommon, some patients who take the drug may experience mild side effects, including stomach pain, nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, and dizziness.

Rare, more serious adverse events have also been known to occur, including chest pain, rash, yellowing of the skin or eyes, light-colored stools, dark urine, stomach pain, unusual bleeding or bruising, fever, sore throat, and swelling of the eyes, face, lips, tongue, or throat.

How long does it take for glyburide-metformin to work?

Many patients begin to notice improvement within 1-2 weeks of starting glyburide-metformin. It is important to continue taking glyburide-metformin for as long as your doctor prescribes, even if you begin to feel better. Do not stop taking glyburide-metformin without consulting your doctor.

What is a typical starting dose of glyburide-metformin?

In most patients, the recommended starting dose is 1.25 mg of glyburide and 250 mg of metformin, taken once or twice daily with meals.

For patients who have been treated, though not adequately, on glyburide or metformin alone, the recommended starting dose is 2.5mg glyburide/500 mg metformin, taken once or twice daily with meals.

Your doctor may gradually increase your dose to a maximum daily intake of 20 mg glyburide/2000 mg metformin.

Talk to your doctor about a starting dose that works for you.
