Glycigon Tablet 10

Glycigon Tablet 10 is used to manage type 2 diabetes mellitus when diet and exercise alone are not sufficient. It helps lower blood sugar levels by stimulating insulin release from the pancreas, supporting better glycaemic control and reducing diabetes-related complications.

• Swallow the tablet whole at breakfast time or during your first main meal.

• Do not chew or break the tablet.

• It's crucial to stick to the recommended dose; do not exceed it without consulting your doctor.

• If you're considering stopping the medicine, make sure you discuss this with your doctor first.

Glycigon Tablet 10 is taken orally.

Glycigon Tablet 10 contains one active ingredient: Gliclazide (80 MG). The mechanisms through which it acts on your body are as follows:

• Insulin Secretion Increase: Gliclazide stimulates the beta-cells in your pancreas to secrete more insulin. Insulin is a hormone that allows cells in your body to take in glucose and use it for energy.

• Enhanced Insulin Sensitivity: Gliclazide aids in increasing tissue sensitivity to insulin. This means that cells respond more effectively to insulin, leading to better glucose absorption and lower blood sugar levels.

• Reduced Gluconeogenesis: This term refers to the process where the liver produces glucose. Gliclazide helps reduce this process, thus limiting the amount of glucose that enters your bloodstream.

• Keep the Glycigon Tablet 10 in a dry place, ensuring it is shielded from direct light.

• The ideal storage temperature is below 30°C.

• Make sure the medicine is always out of the reach of children.

• Aim to maintain a regular meal pattern. Skipping meals can affect blood sugar levels when you are taking gliclazide, the active ingredient in Glycigon Tablet 10.

• Incorporate regular physical activity into your daily routine. Exercise can help manage blood glucose levels when you have type 2 diabetes. Remember, consult your doctor before starting any new exercise regimen.
