What is Gliclan M Tabs 10S used for?

Type 2 diabetes mellitus (when diet and exercise alone or single therapy is not adequate); helps control high blood sugar and reduce risk of diabetes-related complications.

How Gliclan M Tabs 10S Works

Gliclazide is a sulfonylurea that stimulates the pancreas to release insulin, lowering blood glucose. Metformin reduces glucose production in the liver and improves insulin sensitivity, increasing peripheral glucose uptake. Together they provide better glycaemic control than either alone.

Dosage & Directions

Take orally as prescribed by the doctor, usually with or immediately after meals to reduce stomach upset. Swallow tablets whole with water; do not crush/chew unless advised. Maintain diet/exercise plan and monitor blood glucose regularly.

Always follow your doctor's prescription. Do not self-medicate.
