Glipizide limits the blood glucose (sugar) mainly by acting on the beta cells directly which are responsible for insulin-producing cells of pancreatic islet tissue, to trigger the cells to synthesize more insulin, which is effective within 30 minutes. Insulin is usually synthesized in body response to meals, and keeps in check postprandial (post meal) glucose levels of blood (glycaemic control); in diabetes, refusal to insulin leads to loss of glycaemic control.
