Glipizide

Glipizide is a medication used to help manage type 2 diabetes. It works by stimulating the pancreas to produce more insulin, a hormone that lowers blood sugar levels. This helps keep blood sugar within a healthier range and reduces the risk of complications associated with diabetes. Glipizide is typically taken orally, usually once daily before meals. It is most effective when combined with a proper diet and exercise plan. Like all medications, it should be used under medical supervision to monitor blood sugar levels and prevent potential side effects such as low blood sugar (hypoglycemia).
