Flisur 30/500 MG Tablet 10 is primarily prescribed to manage type 2 diabetes mellitus in adults. This medication falls within the class of antidiabetic agents.

It may also be used as an initial treatment for patients whose blood glucose levels are not adequately controlled by diet and exercise alone. Additionally, it can be prescribed in combination with other antidiabetic medications if monotherapy does not achieve satisfactory control.

Before starting this tablet, it is essential to consult your doctor regarding any existing health conditions or medications you may be taking, as they could interact with the treatment. If any side effects occur, report them promptly to your healthcare provider. To achieve the best results, ensure you follow the prescribed dosage and duration recommended by your doctor

Flisur 30/500 MG Tablet 10 is used for the following:

Managing blood sugar levels in adults with type 2 diabetes mellitus
Improving glycemic control when diet and exercise alone are insufficient
Assisting in controlling high blood glucose as an adjunct to other antidiabetic medicines

Here is how to take Flisur 30/500 MG Tablet 10:

Swallow the tablet whole with a full glass of water.
Do not split, crush, or chew the tablet.
This medicine should be taken once daily with your evening meal.
Always take this medicine exactly as directed by your doctor.

Flisur 30/500 MG Tablet 10 is taken orally.

Flisur 30/500 MG Tablet 10 may cause the following side effects:

Hypoglycaemia: This condition is characterised by low levels of glucose in your blood, leading to symptoms such as shakiness, sweating, and a fast heartbeat.
Nausea
Vomiting
Diarrhoea
Abdominal pain
Headache

Managing the Side Effects:

Most side effects are temporary and generally harmless, which resolve on discontinuing the use of Flisur 30/500 MG Tablet 10. However, if you experience any serious side effects or worsening of any of the symptoms, please consult your doctor.

Here are some general guidelines for managing common side effects:

Hypoglycaemia: Carry a source of fast-acting glucose like sweets or a sugary drink with you at all times.
Nausea: Try taking Flisur 30/500 MG Tablet 10 with food rather than on an empty stomach to reduce feelings of nausea.

Flisur 30/500 MG Tablet 10 contains two active ingredients:

Gliclazide (30 mg): As a sulfonylurea, gliclazide stimulates the pancreas to produce more insulin. It works by binding to the sulfonylurea receptor on pancreatic beta-cell surfaces and blocking ATP-sensitive potassium channels. This action depolarises the beta-cell and opens voltage-dependent calcium channels, leading to an influx of calcium ions that stimulate insulin secretion.
Metformin (500 mg): Classified as a biguanide, metformin reduces glucose production by the liver and improves insulin sensitivity. It achieves these effects by activating AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK), a liver enzyme that plays a crucial role in insulin signalling, whole body energy balance, and glucose and lipid metabolism.

Pregnancy

Flisur 30/500 MG Tablet 10 is generally not recommended for use during pregnancy. Consult your doctor to explore safer alternatives if you are pregnant or planning to conceive.

Breastfeeding

Breastfeeding mothers should avoid taking Flisur 30/500 MG Tablet 10, as its active ingredients can pass into breast milk, potentially affecting the infant. Consult your doctor for alternative options or discontinue breastfeeding if advised.

Alcohol

Avoid alcohol consumption while taking this medication, as it may intensify the blood sugar-lowering effect and increase the risk of lactic acidosis—a serious complication associated with metformin.

Liver

This medication is not recommended for patients with liver impairment due to the increased risk of adverse effects. Liver function may be further compromised with its use. Consult your healthcare provider if you have liver-related concerns.

Kidney

Flisur 30/500 MG Tablet 10 is contraindicated in patients with severe renal impairment, as it may elevate the risk of lactic acidosis due to metformin accumulation. People with any history of kidney issues should discuss this with their doctor before starting the medication.

Using Machines & Driving

As Flisur 30/500 MG Tablet 10 may cause dizziness, caution is advised while driving or operating heavy machinery until you know how the medication affects you. Consult your doctor for guidance if you experience dizziness frequently.

Allergy

Avoid taking Flisur 30/500 MG Tablet 10 if you are allergic to gliclazide, metformin, or any other excipients in the formulation. Discuss with your doctor any previous allergies or reactions to antidiabetic medications to determine suitable alternatives.

Children

This medication is not generally recommended for children unless specifically prescribed by a doctor. Always seek medical advice before administering this medicine to a child.

Older Patients

Elderly patients may be more susceptible to the side effects of Flisur 30/500 MG Tablet 10 due to age-related declines in liver, kidney, and heart function. It is advisable for older patients to start at a lower dose as directed by their healthcare provider and take the medication under close medical supervision.

Drug-Drug Interactions

Flisur 30/500 MG Tablet 10 can interact with medications, including:

ACE-Inhibitors: Medicines such as captopril and enalapril can enhance the blood sugar-lowering effects of Flisur 30/500 MG Tablet 10.
Beta Blockers: Medications such as propranolol may intensify the blood glucose-lowering effects of gliclazide, leading to hypoglycaemia (low blood sugar).
Diuretics: Diuretics like furosemide may increase blood sugar levels, which could reduce the effectiveness of Flisur 30/500 MG Tablet 10.
Antifungals: Miconazole and fluconazole can amplify the hypoglycaemic effect of gliclazide, increasing the risk of very low blood sugar levels.

Drug-Disease Interactions

Flisur 30/500 MG Tablet 10 can interact with conditions, including:

Kidney Impairment: This medication should be avoided in individuals with severe renal impairment due to the increased risk of lactic acidosis.
Liver Impairment: Avoid using Flisur 30/500 MG Tablet 10 if you have liver disease, as it may exacerbate liver issues.
Cardiovascular Disease: Patients with heart disease should use this medication with caution, as metformin can cause lactic acidosis, a rare but potentially serious side effect to which people with cardiovascular conditions are more susceptible.

Daily Dose

The daily dose of Flisur 30/500 MG Tablet 10 should be taken strictly as directed by your doctor. The dosage may vary depending on individual factors such as your condition's severity and your response to the medicine. Never alter your dosage without consulting your doctor.

Over Dose

Overdose may lead to severe hypoglycaemia (due to gliclazide) or lactic acidosis (due to metformin), both of which can be life-threatening. Immediate medical attention is essential.

Missed Dose

If you forget to take your regular dose of Flisur 30/500 MG Tablet 10, take it as soon as you remember. However, if it is nearly time for the next dose, skip the missed one and continue with your regular schedule. Don't increase your dosage without consulting your doctor.

Keep Flisur 30/500 MG Tablet 10 in a dry place, away from light and moisture.
The ideal storage temperature should be below 30°C.
Always keep this medicine out of the reach of children.
Remember to use the medicine before the expiry date mentioned on the pack.

As Flisur 30/500 MG Tablet 10 manages type 2 diabetes, maintaining a balanced diet low in sugar and high in fibre can be beneficial. This includes whole grains, fruits, vegetables, and lean proteins.
Regular exercise can help control your blood glucose levels. Engaging in physical activity like walking, yoga or cycling for at least 30 minutes every day can make a significant difference.
