Product Description
GLICLAVIN M 80MG is a fixed-dose combination medication that contains Metformin and Gliclazide. Metformin belongs to a class of medications known as biguanides and is used to control blood sugar levels in individuals with type 2 diabetes. Gliclazide is a sulfonylurea antidiabetic drug that stimulates insulin release from the pancreas, helping to lower blood sugar levels. This combination provides complementary effects to effectively manage blood sugar levels in patients with type 2 diabetes. GLICLAVIN M 80MG is commonly prescribed in patients whose blood sugar levels are not adequately controlled by either medication alone. It helps improve glycemic control and reduces the risk of complications associated with diabetes.
