Brief Answer:
Both can be taken together

Detailed Answer:
Hi XXXXXXX,

Thanks for posting question in HCM.

Roles is a proton pump inhibitor (PPI) for gastritis, Glucoryl M2 is a combination of glimipride and Metformin for diabetes. There are some potential drug interactions between PPI and Metformin. But they are not clinically significant- that is that won't change the effectiveness of either medications. So you can take both tablets together.

Both tablets has to be taken 1/2 hour before meals.

Hope I have answered your questions. If you have any further queries I will be happy to help you.

Regards,

Dr Ajish TP [MD,DM]
