Glucovance is used in the treatment of type 2 (noninsulin dependent) diabetes.This anti-diabetic medication is a combination of two drugs (sulfonylurea and biguanide).Ordinarily, sugar is moved out of the blood and into the body's cells by the hormone insulin. A buildup occurs when the body either fails to make enough insulin or doesn't respond to it properly. This medication works by stimulating the release of your body's natural insulin and by restoring your body's proper response to insulin. Controlling high blood sugar helps prevent heart disease, strokes, kidney disease, blindness and circulation problems, as well as sexual function problems (impotence).
