CompositionGliclaglaze Met Tablet 15 is a medicine used to manage type 2 diabetes in adults. It helps keep blood sugar levels steady, which lowers the risk of long-term diabetes problems affecting the kidneys, eyes, nerves, and heart.
It is a combination of oral antidiabetic medicines that work in different ways, including helping the body release more insulin, improving the body's response to insulin, and reducing the glucose made by the liver. It is usually taken with or just after food. Continue taking it regularly even when you feel well, and do not stop it without medical advice.
Diet and lifestyle play an important part in managing diabetes alongside this medicine. These include eating regular balanced meals, limiting sugary foods and drinks, staying physically active, and maintaining a healthy weight.
Before taking this medicine, tell your doctor about any kidney or liver problems or other medicines you take. Because it can cause low blood sugar (hypoglycaemia), learn to recognise the warning signs such as sweating and shakiness, and keep a fast-acting sugar source with you, especially if a meal is delayed.
