Glicia-60 MR (Gliclazide Modified Release) is designed for patients who need effective, long-lasting blood sugar control with the convenience of fewer doses.
The Modified Release (MR) technology allows the 60 mg of Gliclazide to be absorbed gradually into the bloodstream. This provides a stable level of the drug over 24 hours, which is particularly effective at reducing fasting blood sugar and preventing spikes after meals. Gliclazide works by stimulating the pancreas to release insulin at the right time. Additionally, it has unique properties that help protect the small blood vessels (micro-vasculature) from damage caused by diabetes. It is a reliable choice for long-term type 2 diabetes management when combined with a healthy diet and lifestyle.
