Need medicines name
My dad has been prescribed the following:
1)Glimepiride 2 mg - once before breakfast
2)Metformin 500 mg - once before lunch and once before dinner.
He has been consuming these since last 7 months.
In the prescription medicine name has not been mentioned and the medicine he is having has the name
Glimepiride 2 mg
Metformin 500 mg
He has moved from hometown to Bengaluru.
I would like to know medicine name for each of the above composition and a prescription as well since i need to order those online.
His blood sugar after food was 147 and was last done in July 3rd week.
Attaching the prescription for reference which mentions the composition name rather than medicine name.
Thank you.

Consult online and get the prescription.. Better to check the complaints of the patient and plan medicine change accordingly.. Good combination are available.. But need to know dietary habits of the patient to tailor the medicine accordingly
