What is Glucovance used for?


Glucovance is an anti-diabetic medication containing glyburide (sulfonylurea) and metformin hydrochloride. It is used along with diet and exercise to help control high blood sugar (hyperglycemia) in adults with type 2 diabetes. Glyburide lowers blood sugar primarily by causing more of the body’s own insulin to be released, and metformin lowers blood sugar, in part, by helping your body use your own insulin more effectively. It is not known if Glucovance is safe and effective in children under 18 years of age. Take the medicine exactly as prescribed by your doctor. Glucovance should be taken 2 times each day with meals to help decrease an upset stomach side effect and avoid hypoglycemia. If you are taking colesevelam and Glucovance, take your Glucovance at least 4 hours before taking your colesevelam. Check your blood sugar as your healthcare provider tells you to.
