Description

GLYTRIN MET TABLET

GLYTRIN MET TABLET, manufactured by Medley Pharmaceuticals Ltd., is an oral antidiabetic medication prescribed for the management of Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus.

  • Composition: Each tablet typically contains Metformin (500mg or 1000mg, depending on strength) and Teneligliptin (20mg). Metformin is a biguanide that reduces glucose production in the liver and decreases intestinal glucose absorption, while Teneligliptin is a DPP-4 inhibitor that increases insulin levels and lowers glucagon levels in the body, particularly after meals.

  • Uses: GLYTRIN MET TABLET is used to treat Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus in adults, especially when diet and exercise alone are insufficient, or when metformin monotherapy does not achieve adequate glycemic control. It helps improve blood sugar control, enhance insulin sensitivity, and can aid in reducing the risk of diabetes-related complications such as kidney damage, eye problems, nerve issues, heart attack, and stroke.

  • Dosage and Administration: This medicine should be taken as prescribed by a physician, typically once daily, preferably after meals to minimize stomach upset. Swallow the tablet whole with a glass of water; do not crush, chew, or break it. The dosage and duration of treatment are determined by the doctor based on individual needs, blood sugar levels, and response to therapy. Do not exceed the recommended dose.

  • Side Effects:

    • Common: Nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, headache, stomach ache/discomfort, respiratory infection, weight gain, sweating, constipation, flatulence, altered taste sensations, and hypoglycemia (low blood sugar), especially when used with insulin or sulfonylureas.
    • Serious: A rare but serious side effect is lactic acidosis, characterized by symptoms like abdominal pain, muscle cramps, vomiting, severe fatigue, and difficulty breathing. Seek immediate medical attention if these symptoms occur. Other serious side effects may include severe allergic reactions and, with long-term use, Vitamin B12 deficiency.
  • Precautions: GLYTRIN MET TABLET is contraindicated in patients with known allergies to its components, severe kidney or liver disease, severe uncontrollable diabetes, alcoholism, severe systemic infections, Type 1 diabetes, or diabetic ketoacidosis. Caution is advised in pregnant and breastfeeding women; consult a doctor before use. Inform your doctor about any pre-existing medical conditions, especially heart problems, pancreatic issues, or if you are taking other medications, to avoid potential drug interactions and risks like lactic acidosis. Regular monitoring of blood sugar levels and kidney function is advisable during treatment.

  • Storage: Store GLYTRIN MET TABLET in a cool, dry place, protected from direct sunlight, moisture, and heat. The optimal temperature is below 25°C or 30°C. Keep out of the sight and reach of children.

Frequently Asked Questions

GLYTRIN MET TABLET is a medication primarily used for the management of Type 2 diabetes mellitus. It combines two active ingredients, Metformin and Teneligliptin, to help control high blood sugar levels.

What is GLYTRIN MET TABLET used for?

GLYTRIN MET TABLET is prescribed to treat Type 2 diabetes mellitus, particularly in adults whose blood sugar levels are not adequately controlled by Metformin alone, or with diet and exercise. It helps in managing high blood sugar, thereby reducing the risk of serious complications associated with diabetes, such as kidney damage, eye problems, nerve issues, and cardiovascular events like heart attacks and strokes.

How does GLYTRIN MET TABLET work?

This medicine contains Metformin and Teneligliptin. Metformin, a biguanide, works by decreasing the amount of glucose produced by the liver, reducing glucose absorption from the intestines, and enhancing the body's sensitivity to insulin. Teneligliptin, a dipeptidyl peptidase-4 (DPP-4) inhibitor, increases the release of insulin from the pancreas and decreases the hormones that raise blood sugar levels. Together, these actions lead to better control of blood sugar, both fasting and after meals.

What is the usual dosage for GLYTRIN MET TABLET?

The dosage of GLYTRIN MET TABLET should be strictly as prescribed by your doctor. It is typically taken once daily with food. The tablet should be swallowed whole with a glass of water and should not be chewed, crushed, or broken. Taking it with food can help reduce stomach upset.

What are the possible side effects of GLYTRIN MET TABLET?

Common side effects may include nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, headache, stomach discomfort or pain, and hypoglycemia (low blood glucose level). Some individuals might also experience potential weight gain. A serious but rare side effect is lactic acidosis, which can manifest as abdominal pain, muscle cramps, severe fatigue, and breathing difficulties, and requires immediate medical attention. Long-term use may also lead to Vitamin B12 deficiency.

Is GLYTRIN MET TABLET safe during pregnancy or breastfeeding?

GLYTRIN MET TABLET is generally not recommended during pregnancy and should only be used if the potential benefit justifies the potential risk to the fetus, as animal studies have shown harmful effects on the developing baby. It is contraindicated during breastfeeding as it may be secreted in breast milk and cause unwanted effects in nursing babies. Always consult your doctor if you are pregnant, planning to become pregnant, or breastfeeding.

Can GLYTRIN MET TABLET be taken with other medications?

It is crucial to inform your doctor about all other medications, including herbal supplements, you are currently taking. GLYTRIN MET TABLET can interact with certain anti-diabetic medications, iodine contrast media (used during X-rays), bronchodilators (e.g., salbutamol), corticosteroids (e.g., hydrocortisone), diuretics (e.g., furosemide), and cationic medicines (e.g., amiloride, digoxin, morphine).

What precautions should be taken while using GLYTRIN MET TABLET?

Before starting this medication, inform your doctor if you have a history of kidney, liver, or heart problems, pancreatic issues, severe infections, or a history of excessive alcohol consumption. It is advisable to avoid or limit alcohol consumption while taking this medicine as it can increase the risk of lactic acidosis. Regular monitoring of blood sugar levels and kidney function is recommended during treatment. Do not discontinue the medicine without consulting your doctor, even if your blood sugar levels are controlled. Since it may cause dizziness or drowsiness, exercise caution when driving or operating machinery.

What happens if a dose of GLYTRIN MET TABLET is missed?

If you miss a dose of GLYTRIN MET TABLET, take it as soon as you remember. However, if it is almost time for your next scheduled dose, skip the missed dose and continue with your regular dosing schedule. Do not take a double dose to compensate for the missed one.

How should GLYTRIN MET TABLET be stored?

GLYTRIN MET TABLET should be stored in a cool and dry place, away from direct sunlight and moisture. Keep it out of the sight and reach of children. The medicine should be stored below 30°C.
