Diamicron XR MEX 60/1000 Tablet contains two active ingredients:

• Gliclazide (60 mg): This belongs to the sulfonylurea class of medicines that stimulates the pancreas to produce more insulin. It helps your body release insulin more effectively, which is necessary for moving glucose from your bloodstream into your cells.

• Metformin (1000 mg): As a biguanide medicine, metformin works by reducing the amount of glucose your liver produces. It also improves insulin sensitivity in peripheral tissues, meaning your body can use insulin more effectively. Additionally, it decreases the absorption of glucose from your intestines after meals.

• Check the expiry date and do not use after this date.

• Monitor your carbohydrate intake by choosing complex carbohydrates (like whole grains) over simple sugars to help maintain steady blood glucose levels throughout the day.
