Description
Diamicron is a prescription medication that contains the active ingredient gliclazide, which is an oral antidiabetic agent belonging to the sulfonylurea class. It is primarily used to help manage blood glucose levels in adults with type 2 diabetes mellitus.
Product Overview:
Each Diamicron 30 mg MR (Modified Release) Tablet contains 30 mg of gliclazide, designed for once-daily dosing. The modified-release formulation allows for a gradual release of the medication, providing consistent blood sugar control throughout the day.
Key Features and Benefits:
- Effective Glycemic Control: Diamicron stimulates insulin secretion from the pancreas in response to meals, helping to lower blood sugar levels effectively.
- Modified Release: The MR formulation ensures a steady release of gliclazide, which helps reduce the risk of hypoglycemia (low blood sugar) and allows for convenient once-daily dosing.
- Flexible Treatment Option: Diamicron can be used alone or in combination with other antidiabetic medications, including metformin or insulin, providing personalized treatment plans.
Directions for Use:
- Dosage: The usual starting dose is 30 mg taken once daily, preferably with breakfast. Your healthcare provider may adjust the dosage based on your blood glucose levels and individual response.
- Administration: Swallow the tablet whole with a glass of water. Do not crush or chew the tablet, as this may affect the modified-release properties.
- Consistency: For optimal results, take Diamicron at the same time each day.
Precautions and Side Effects:
- Common Side Effects: Potential side effects may include hypoglycemia, headache, dizziness, nausea, and gastrointestinal disturbances. Monitoring blood glucose levels is essential to avoid hypoglycemic episodes.
- Serious Side Effects: Rare but serious side effects can include severe allergic reactions, liver dysfunction, and blood disorders. Seek immediate medical attention if you experience symptoms such as jaundice, unusual bruising, or signs of a severe allergic reaction.
- Monitoring: Regular monitoring of blood glucose levels and liver function is important during treatment to ensure efficacy and safety.
- Drug Interactions: Inform your healthcare provider about all medications, supplements, and herbal products you are taking, as Diamicron may interact with other drugs.
- Medical Conditions: Discuss your complete medical history with your healthcare provider, particularly if you have liver or kidney issues, as these conditions may affect the use of Diamicron.
