[0109] program:

[0110] 1. Grind metformin hydrochloride mixed with microcrystalline cellulose and sodium carboxymethyl cellulose. Sift the mixture.

[0111] 2. Separately sieve the hydroxypropyl methylcellulose and mix with the mixture from step 1 in a low shear mixer. The mixture is then blended with magnesium stearate, passed through a roller compactor, and ground to form granules.

[0112] 3. Mix glimepiride, lactose, microcrystalline cellulose and sodium starch glycolate, and granulate with polyvinylpyrrolidone solution in pure water.

[0113] 4. Granulate the wet mass from step 3, dry and sieve.

[0114] 5. Compress the lubricated granules of metformin and glimepiride into bilayer tablets with a rotary tablet press.
