Product Overview
Euclide M Tablet is a combination medication used to manage type 2 diabetes mellitus in adults. It contains two active ingredients that help regulate blood sugar levels, aiding in the control of diabetes.
This tablet should be taken alongside meals to minimize stomach discomfort. It’s important to take the medication consistently at the same time every day to achieve optimal results. Your healthcare provider will determine the appropriate dose based on your blood sugar levels and may adjust it as needed.
Even if you start feeling better or your blood sugar improves, continue taking the medication as directed by your doctor. Stopping treatment without medical advice may cause blood sugar to rise, increasing the risk of complications such as kidney damage, nerve damage, vision problems, or even limb loss. Medication is just one part of managing diabetes; maintaining a healthy diet, engaging in regular exercise, and controlling weight are essential parts of your treatment plan.
Uses
Euclide M Tablet is prescribed for managing type 2 diabetes mellitus by helping to keep blood sugar levels within a healthy range.
How It Helps
Type 2 diabetes occurs when the body either does not produce enough insulin or cannot use it effectively, resulting in elevated blood glucose. Euclide M Tablet helps by lowering blood sugar levels and reducing the risk of complications like nerve damage, kidney problems, and vision loss. Proper management with this medication can improve overall health and quality of life.
Possible Side Effects
Common side effects include low blood sugar (hypoglycemia), constipation, vomiting, headache, dizziness, diarrhea, nausea, flatulence, and upper respiratory infections. It’s important to recognize symptoms of low blood sugar, such as sweating, shakiness, dizziness, or headache, and to be prepared by carrying quick sources of sugar like fruit juice or sugary snacks. Alcohol consumption should be avoided, as it can increase the risk of hypoglycemia.
Precautions
Euclide M Tablet is not suitable for people with type 1 diabetes, diabetic ketoacidosis, or severe liver or kidney disease. Before starting treatment, inform your doctor if you have a history of heart disease or any other health issues. Pregnant or breastfeeding women should only use this medication after consulting their healthcare provider. Regular monitoring of blood sugar, kidney function, liver function, and blood counts may be recommended.
How to Take
Take Euclide M Tablet exactly as prescribed. Swallow the tablet whole with food. Do not crush, chew, or break it.
How It Works
This medication combines Gliclazide and Metformin. Gliclazide stimulates the pancreas to release insulin, which lowers blood glucose. Metformin improves the body’s response to insulin and decreases glucose production in the liver.
