Semi Reclimet – Strip of 10 Tablets

Semi Reclimet is a combination medication used primarily for the treatment of Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus. This product combines two active ingredients, Gliclazide and Metformin Hydrochloride, in one tablet. It is available in a strip of 10 uncoated tablets, each designed to help control blood sugar levels in patients with diabetes. This combination therapy works effectively to regulate blood glucose, providing better management of diabetes.

Composition:

Each uncoated tablet of Semi Reclimet contains:

• Gliclazide IP: 40 mg
• Metformin Hydrochloride IP: 500 mg

Gliclazide is a sulfonylurea that works by stimulating the pancreas to release more insulin, which helps lower blood sugar levels. Metformin is an antidiabetic agent that works by improving the body’s sensitivity to insulin and reducing the amount of glucose produced by the liver.

Indications and Uses:

Semi Reclimet is commonly prescribed for:

• Management of Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus: It helps control blood sugar levels when diet and exercise alone are not sufficient.
• Blood Sugar Regulation: By combining Gliclazide and Metformin, it addresses both insulin secretion and insulin sensitivity, which is crucial for patients with Type 2 diabetes.

Dosage and Administration:

The typical dosage of Semi Reclimet is one tablet taken once or twice daily with meals, depending on the physician’s recommendations. The dosage may vary based on individual needs, and it is crucial to follow the healthcare provider’s instructions for optimal results.

Precautions:

• Kidney and Liver Function: Semi Reclimet should be used with caution in individuals with kidney or liver problems, and regular monitoring is advised.
• Hypoglycemia: There is a risk of low blood sugar (hypoglycemia), especially when combined with other antidiabetic drugs. Signs of hypoglycemia include dizziness, sweating, and weakness.
• Pregnancy and Breastfeeding: Semi Reclimet is generally not recommended during pregnancy or breastfeeding. Always consult your doctor for alternative medications if required.
