Managing the Side Effects:

Most side effects are temporary and generally harmless, which resolve on discontinuing the use of Hirepa 1 Tablet. However, if you experience any serious side effects or worsening of any of the symptoms, please consult your doctor.

Hirepa 1 Tablet contains Repaglinide (1 mg), which has the following actions on your body:

Increases Insulin Secretion: Repaglinide stimulates your pancreas to produce more insulin, which leads to lowering of blood glucose levels.
Acts on Pancreatic Beta Cells: This medicine works by closing ATP-dependent potassium channels found in pancreatic beta cells, causing them to depolarise. This action results in the opening of calcium channels.
Induces Insulin Secretion: The increase in intracellular calcium within these cells subsequently induces insulin secretion. This process is dependent on glucose levels and diminishes as blood glucose levels normalise.
