Page 1 mg Tablet contains repaglinide (1 mg), and it works on your body in the following ways:

• ATP-dependent Potassium Channels Closure: Repaglinide binds to and closes the ATP-dependent potassium channels on the membranes of your pancreas's beta cells. The closure of these channels changes the electrical charge across the cell membrane, initiating a series of events inside the cell.

• Voltage-gated Calcium Channels Opening: The change in electrical charge opens voltage-gated calcium channels, leading to an influx of calcium into the cell. The increase in intracellular calcium stimulates the release of insulin from the cell.

• Insulin Secretion: The final step in the process is the secretion of insulin. Repaglinide induces the exocytosis, or release, of granules containing insulin from the beta cells of your pancreas. This release is dependent on the level of glucose in your body, meaning more insulin is released when your glucose levels are higher.
