About the Product:
Triglycomet Tablet SR is an anti-diabetic medication used in the treatment of Type 2 diabetes mellitus in adults. It is a combination of three active ingredients that help control blood sugar levels effectively when single or dual therapy is not enough. This medication helps to manage your diabetes by improving the body’s response to insulin and promoting the elimination of excess glucose through urine.
Triglycomet Tablet SR should be taken as prescribed by your doctor, typically with food, and at the same time each day for best results. Consistent use, along with a healthy diet and exercise, is important in controlling blood glucose levels and preventing complications of diabetes.
Salt Composition/Key Ingredients:
- Glibenclamide (5mg)
- Metformin (500mg)
- Pioglitazone (15mg)
How to Use:
Take Triglycomet Tablet SR as directed by your doctor. Swallow the tablet whole with a meal. Do not chew, crush, or break the tablet. It is essential to take this medication regularly, even if you feel well, as it helps prevent your blood sugar from rising and reduces the risk of complications.
Your doctor will determine the appropriate dose based on your individual condition, and this may change over time. If you miss a dose, take it as soon as you remember, but skip the missed dose if it is almost time for your next dose. Do not take extra medicine to make up for a missed dose.
Restrictions:
- Do not use this medication if you have Type 1 diabetes mellitus or diabetic ketoacidosis (a serious complication of diabetes).
- Severe kidney or liver disease can make this medication unsafe for you.
- If you have heart disease, inform your doctor, as this medication may not be suitable for you.
- Pregnant or breastfeeding women should consult their doctor before using Triglycomet Tablet SR.
- Regular monitoring of your blood sugar levels is important, along with occasional blood tests to assess liver function and blood cell counts.
Side Effects:
While most side effects of Triglycomet Tablet SR are mild and often temporary, some common side effects include:
- Hypoglycemia (low blood sugar)
- Anemia (low red blood cell count)
- Diarrhea, headache, nausea, and vomiting
- Weight gain
- Abdominal pain
- Visual disorders
- Erectile dysfunction
- Blood in urine
If any side effects persist or worsen, contact your doctor. In case of severe hypoglycemia, you should have a quick source of glucose (e.g., fruit juice or sugary food) readily available.
How It Works:
Triglycomet Tablet SR combines three anti-diabetic drugs, each working through a different mechanism to provide better control of blood sugar:
- Glibenclamide (a sulfonylurea) stimulates the pancreas to release more insulin, lowering blood glucose levels.
- Metformin (a biguanide) reduces the amount of glucose produced by the liver and improves the body’s sensitivity to insulin, making it more effective in regulating blood sugar.
- Pioglitazone (a thiazolidinedione) increases the sensitivity of body cells to insulin, helping to lower blood sugar levels.
This combined effect allows for better control of blood glucose in patients with Type 2 diabetes when other treatments may not be as effective.
