Glizid XR 30 Tablet 15’s

Glizid XR 30 Tablet 15’s is used to manage type 2 diabetes mellitus, a condition where the body does not produce enough insulin or cannot use insulin effectively. It contains gliclazide, which helps lower blood sugar by increasing insulin release from the pancreas.

Most people tolerate this medicine well. Some may experience stomach pain, indigestion, nausea, vomiting, or constipation. These effects are usually mild and improve over time. Consult your doctor if symptoms persist.

Take Glizid XR 30 Tablet 15’s with food to avoid stomach upset. Use it at the same time each day for better control of blood sugar. Do not skip meals and keep a source of sugar with you to manage low blood sugar episodes.

Avoid this medicine if you are allergic to gliclazide or its ingredients. Do not stop the treatment without medical advice, as it may cause sudden changes in blood sugar. Avoid alcohol as it increases the risk of hypoglycemia. Inform your doctor if you are pregnant, breastfeeding, or taking other medicines.
