CompositionGLYKIND M XR 60 TABLET 10 is used to help control blood sugar in adults with type 2 diabetes when a single medicine is not enough. Good control helps lower the risk of long-term diabetes complications.
It combines gliclazide, a sulfonylurea that helps the pancreas release insulin, and metformin, which improves the body's response to insulin and reduces the glucose made by the liver. Take it with meals as prescribed, and do not skip meals.
A balanced diet with controlled carbohydrate intake, regular activity, keeping to a healthy weight and routine blood sugar monitoring support better control alongside this medicine.
Tell your doctor about any kidney or liver problems before starting, and about other medicines you take. Learn the signs of low blood sugar (shakiness, sweating, hunger) and report frequent episodes, ongoing vomiting or fast breathing.
