Reclimet OD 60 Tablet

Reclimet OD 60 is an anti-diabetic medicine designed for adults with type 2 diabetes mellitus. It contains two active components that work together to help regulate blood sugar levels, supporting long-term management of diabetes and reducing the risk of associated complications.

This tablet should be taken along with meals at a consistent time each day for maximum effect. Your healthcare provider will determine the appropriate dose based on your blood sugar readings and response to treatment, and adjustments may be made as needed. Continuing treatment as prescribed is essential, even if your blood sugar levels appear stable, to prevent complications such as nerve damage, kidney disease, or vision problems.

Importance of Lifestyle Measures
Managing diabetes effectively requires more than medication. Following a healthy diet, staying physically active, maintaining a healthy weight, and adhering to your doctor’s recommendations are all crucial components of care.

Potential Side Effects
The most frequently reported effects include low blood sugar (hypoglycemia), constipation, and vomiting. Recognize symptoms of low blood sugar such as sweating, dizziness, headache, or trembling, and be prepared with a fast-acting source of sugar like juice or glucose tablets. Alcohol can heighten the risk of low blood sugar and should be avoided. Additional side effects may include changes in taste, nausea, diarrhea, stomach discomfort, headache, flatulence, or mild upper respiratory infections. Some patients may experience weight gain while taking this medicine.

Precautions and Contraindications
Reclimet OD 60 should not be used in type 1 diabetes, diabetic ketoacidosis, or in patients with severe liver or kidney problems. Inform your doctor if you have a history of heart disease or other significant health conditions. Pregnant or breastfeeding women should seek medical guidance before using this medication. Regular blood sugar monitoring is necessary, and periodic lab tests may be advised to check liver function and overall health.
