About GLICLAZIDE

GLICLAZIDE is an oral antidiabetic medication used to treat type 2 diabetes mellitus. It belongs to the class of sulfonylureas, which stimulate the release of insulin from the pancreatic beta cells, thereby lowering blood glucose levels.

Key Benefits & Uses

• Treatment of type 2 diabetes mellitus to lower blood glucose levels.
• Improvement of glycemic control in patients with type 2 diabetes.
• Adjunct therapy to diet and exercise in the management of type 2 diabetes.

Active Ingredient & Action

GLICLAZIDE, the active ingredient, works by binding to and inhibiting the ATP-sensitive potassium channels in the pancreatic beta cells, leading to an increase in insulin secretion. This results in a decrease in blood glucose levels, which helps to improve glycemic control in patients with type 2 diabetes.

Important Notes

GLICLAZIDE should be used under the guidance of a healthcare professional. It may cause hypoglycemia, especially when used in combination with other antidiabetic medications or in patients with renal or hepatic impairment. Regular monitoring of blood glucose levels and renal function is recommended. Patients should be advised to maintain a healthy diet and exercise regimen to achieve optimal glycemic control.
