Repaglin 1mg Tablet

Repaglin 1mg Tablet, made by Raazee Therapeutics Ltd, is a short-acting meglitinide diabetes medicine. Its active ingredient is Repaglinide 1mg, and it is used for type 2 diabetes. Pack size: 10 tablets.

Uses of Repaglin 1mg Tablet

Repaglin 1mg Tablet is used to lower blood sugar in adults with type 2 diabetes when diet and exercise alone are not enough. It is taken around main meals and helps control the rise in blood sugar after eating. It can be used on its own or together with metformin. Because it acts quickly and briefly, it can suit people whose meal times vary.

How Repaglin 1mg Tablet works

Repaglinide stimulates the beta cells of the pancreas to release a quick burst of insulin. The effect starts within minutes and lasts only a few hours, so it mainly lowers the blood sugar rise that follows a meal and is less likely to cause prolonged low blood sugar.

Possible side effects

The most important side effect to know about with Repaglin 1mg Tablet is low blood sugar. Other common effects include:

• Low blood sugar (shakiness, sweating, hunger)
• Stomach pain
• Diarrhoea
• Nausea
• Headache

Treat early signs of low blood sugar with glucose or a sugary drink, and get urgent help if it causes confusion, fainting or fits. See a doctor promptly for yellowing of the skin or eyes or signs of an allergic reaction.

Precautions and warnings

• If you skip a meal, skip the dose that goes with it to avoid low blood sugar.
• Keep up regular blood sugar checks and carry a quick source of sugar with you.
• Tell your doctor if you have liver or kidney disease.
• Do not take it with gemfibrozil, and tell your doctor about all other medicines and alcohol use, as several can strengthen its effect.
• It is not used for type 1 diabetes and is not recommended during pregnancy or breastfeeding.

Storage

Store below 30°C in a dry place, away from direct sunlight and moisture. Keep it in the original pack until use. Keep all medicines out of the reach of children.
