CompositionGlynase Tablet is a medicine used to lower high blood sugar levels in adults with type 2 diabetes mellitus. It helps keep blood sugar levels within a target range and reduces the risk of long-term diabetes-related complications such as kidney damage, nerve problems, vision loss, and cardiovascular problems.
It contains glipizide, which belongs to a group of medicines called sulfonylureas. Take the tablet as prescribed by your doctor, usually shortly before or with a meal. Do not skip meals after taking it. Continue taking it regularly even if you feel well, as blood sugar control requires ongoing management. Do not stop taking it suddenly without medical advice.
A balanced diet and regular physical activity are essential parts of diabetes management. Maintain a consistent meal routine, monitor your carbohydrate intake, stay active, and regularly check your blood sugar levels as advised by your doctor. Always carry a quick source of sugar, such as glucose sweets or fruit juice, to treat low blood sugar if it occurs.
Before taking this medicine, tell your doctor if you have any liver, kidney, or thyroid conditions, or a history of severe low blood sugar episodes. Inform your doctor if you are pregnant, planning to become pregnant, or breastfeeding. Tell your doctor if you experience symptoms of low blood sugar, such as sweating, shakiness, or confusion.
