Medical Description

Gzide 60mg Tablet XR is a medication used to help manage type 2 diabetes in adults when diet and exercise alone are not enough. It contains gliclazide, which works by stimulating the pancreas to release more insulin and helps your body use insulin more effectively. By doing this, it helps lower blood sugar levels and maintain better control of diabetes over time.

Type 2 diabetes happens when the body either does not produce enough insulin or cannot use it properly, causing high blood sugar. Taking Gzide 60mg Tablet XR as prescribed by your doctor helps manage blood sugar and reduces the risk of complications like kidney, heart, and nerve problems. Regular monitoring of blood sugar is recommended to ensure your levels stay within a safe range.

Along with taking this medicine, lifestyle changes are essential for effective diabetes control. Your doctor may recommend a healthy diet, regular exercise, limiting alcohol, and avoiding smoking. Following these measures, along with Gzide 60mg Tablet XR, helps you achieve the best results in managing your blood sugar levels.

Like other diabetes medications, Gzide 60mg Tablet XR may cause side effects. Low blood sugar (hypoglycaemia) is a common side effect and may cause symptoms such as sweating, shakiness, or weakness.
