Managing the Side Effects:

Most side effects are temporary and generally harmless, which resolve on discontinuing the use of Claz OD 60 Tablet. However, if you experience any serious side effects or worsening of any of the symptoms, please consult your doctor.

Nausea or Vomiting: Try taking Claz OD 60 Tablet with food to reduce these symptoms.

Claz OD 60 Tablet contains Gliclazide (60 mg), which works in the body as follows:

Stimulates Insulin Secretion: Gliclazide operates by acting on the pancreatic beta cells, which in turn stimulate the secretion of insulin, a hormone that lowers glucose levels in the blood.
Improves Insulin Sensitivity: In addition to stimulating insulin secretion, gliclazide may enhance insulin sensitivity in peripheral body tissues, encouraging these tissues to use insulin more effectively.
Reduces Hepatic Glucose Output: Lastly, gliclazide has the potential to reduce the amount of glucose produced by your liver, further assisting in the control of blood sugar levels.

Pregnancy

Claz OD 60 Tablet is generally not recommended during pregnancy. If you are pregnant or planning to conceive, it's best to discuss this with your doctor before starting this medicine.

Breastfeeding

Claz OD 60 Tablet is generally not recommended for breastfeeding women. Please consult your doctor to understand the potential risks and benefits.

Alcohol

Avoid alcohol consumption while taking Claz OD 60 Tablet. Alcohol can enhance the blood sugar-lowering effect of this medicine, leading to hypoglycemia.

Kidney

Caution is advised before using Claz OD 60 Tablet if you have a history of any kidney problems. Your doctor will guide you based on your health status.

Using Machines & Driving

Beta-blockers: Medicines such as propranolol and atenolol can mask the symptoms of hypoglycaemia when taken with Claz OD 60 Tablet.
ACE Inhibitors: Medicines such as enalapril and lisinopril can potentiate the blood sugar-lowering effect of Claz OD 60 Tablet.
