Tripill 1mg Tablet is used to treat type 2 diabetes mellitus associated with dyslipidaemia. It contains Atorvastatin, Glimepiride and Metformin. Atorvastatin is an HMG-CoA reductase inhibitor (statin) that raises good cholesterol and lowers bad cholesterol. It slows the production of cholesterol in the body and decreases the build-up of cholesterol on artery walls. Metformin belongs to a class of medicines called biguanides that aids better use of existing insulin by decreasing the absorption and production of sugar in the body. Glimepiride is the preferred sulphonylurea in those with underlying cardiovascular disease (CAD). It lowers blood glucose by increasing the amount of insulin released by the pancreas. It has both lipid and glucose-lowering effects; this helps in lowering blood triglycerides and blood glucose levels as well.

Include plenty of vegetables and choose low-fat dairy products to support healthy cholesterol levels. Additionally, incorporate omega-3-rich foods like fish into your diet.

Consult your doctor for personalized advice.

Frequent low blood sugar (hypoglycaemia) could be caused by several factors, such as taking too much insulin or other diabetes medications, irregular meal patterns, overexertion yourself physically without enough food, or taking diabetes medications while fasting. It may also be related to underlying conditions like adrenal or pituitary insufficiency (which occurs when the adrenal or pituitary glands fail to produce adequate amounts of certain hormones) or, in rare cases, a tumour affecting insulin production. Additionally, excessive alcohol consumption or certain medications can interfere with blood sugar regulation. It is essential to consult a doctor for an accurate diagnosis and proper management.
