Introduction About GLIZINA 80 TABLET
GLIZINA 80 TABLET is used in adults in the management of type II diabetes mellitus when diet, exercise, and lifestyle changes alone do not result in an adequate response. It contains Gliclazide which belongs to the group of medicines called Antidiabetic agents. It effectively controls blood sugar levels, where gliclazide makes the pancreas secrete more insulin to digest the circulating sugars (glucose) in the blood. It also makes the body more sensitive to insulin, which helps in utilizing the circulating blood glucose (sugars), leading to a decrease in blood glucose levels.
During therapy with GLIZINA 80 TABLET, your doctor might ask you to make certain lifestyle changes, such as following a healthy diet, regular physical exercise and quitting alcohol consumption. Before taking GLIZINA 80 TABLET, inform your doctor if you have any liver or kidney problems. You must also inform your doctor if you have any hormonal problems, genetic disorders (such as G6PD deficiency), or if you are malnourished, starved, or on an irregular diet.
