DIAMICRON MR 30 MG is indicated for the treatment of type 2 diabetes mellitus. It is used when diet, exercise, and weight control alone are insufficient to control blood sugar levels. The active ingredient, Gliclazide, stimulates the pancreas to produce insulin, helping lower blood glucose levels. This medication is used in combination with other lifestyle interventions or other antidiabetic medications when required.

Pharmacology:
DIAMICRON MR 30 MG contains Gliclazide, a sulfonylurea antidiabetic drug. Gliclazide works by stimulating the pancreatic beta cells to release insulin, which helps lower blood sugar levels. It also improves insulin sensitivity and helps control glucose production by the liver. Gliclazide is known for its mild hypoglycemic effect, reducing the risk of low blood sugar when used as directed. The "MR" (Modified Release) formulation ensures that the drug is released gradually over time, offering a longer duration of action and maintaining stable blood sugar levels throughout the day.

Dosage:

• The usual starting dose for adults with type 2 diabetes is 30 mg once daily, taken with breakfast.

• The dosage may be adjusted by the doctor based on the patient's response to treatment.

• The maximum recommended dose is typically 120 mg per day, taken in divided doses.

• Always follow your doctor’s recommendations regarding the dose and frequency.

Administration:
Take DIAMICRON MR 30 MG orally with food, preferably at breakfast. Swallow the tablet whole with a glass of water. Do not crush or chew the tablet, as it may alter the release mechanism of the medication. Taking it with food helps to reduce the risk of gastrointestinal side effects.

Interaction:
DIAMICRON MR 30 MG may interact with other medications, including:

• Other antidiabetic drugs (e.g., insulin, metformin), which may increase the risk of hypoglycemia (low blood sugar).

• Certain antibiotics, antifungals, and medications affecting the liver.

• Medications that increase blood sugar levels, such as corticosteroids or certain diuretics.
  Always inform your doctor about any other medications or supplements you are taking.

Contraindications:
DIAMICRON MR 30 MG should not be used by individuals who:

• Are allergic to Gliclazide or any of the other ingredients in the medication.

• Have type 1 diabetes mellitus or diabetic ketoacidosis.

• Have severe liver or kidney impairment.

• Are pregnant or breastfeeding.

• Have a history of severe allergic reactions to sulfonylurea drugs.

Side Effects:
Common side effects may include:

• Nausea, vomiting, or gastrointestinal discomfort.

• Headache, dizziness, or lightheadedness.

• Weight gain due to increased insulin levels.
  Serious side effects can include:

• Hypoglycemia (low blood sugar), which may cause symptoms like shaking, sweating, dizziness, or confusion.
  If you experience severe hypoglycemia, take glucose immediately and seek medical assistance.

Pregnancy & Lactation:
Pregnancy:
DIAMICRON MR 30 MG should not be used during pregnancy, as it may harm the fetus. Insulin therapy is recommended during pregnancy for better blood glucose control. Consult your doctor if you are pregnant or planning to become pregnant.
Lactation:
Gliclazide may pass into breast milk and affect the baby. It is generally not recommended during breastfeeding. Consult your doctor before using DIAMICRON MR 30 MG while breastfeeding.

Therapeutic Class:
Sulfonylureas (oral hypoglycemic agents).
