GLIBIMIDE 5: USES, PRICE AND ALL DETAILS..

GLIBIMIDE 5

Glibenclamide (5 mg)

GLIBIMIDE 5 contains Glibenclamide (5 mg), a sulfonylurea class medication used to manage blood sugar levels in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus. It is primarily prescribed when diet and exercise alone are not sufficient to control blood glucose levels.

Uses
Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus: GLIBIMIDE 5 is used to lower blood sugar levels in adults with type 2 diabetes. Effective blood glucose management helps prevent complications such as cardiovascular diseases, neuropathy, nephropathy, and retinopathy.
Mechanism of Action
Glibenclamide: This medication works by stimulating the release of insulin from the pancreatic beta cells. It binds to the sulfonylurea receptor on the beta cell membrane, leading to the closure of ATP-sensitive potassium channels. This results in cell depolarization, opening of calcium channels, and influx of calcium ions, which triggers insulin secretion.
Dosage
Typical Dose: The usual starting dose is 2.5-5 mg once daily, taken with breakfast or the first main meal of the day. The dose can be adjusted based on the patient's response, but should not exceed 20 mg per day.
Side Effects
Common: Hypoglycemia (low blood sugar), nausea, heartburn, a feeling of fullness, and weight gain.
Serious: Severe hypoglycemia, jaundice, blood disorders, and allergic skin reactions.
Contraindications
Severe renal or hepatic impairment.
Known hypersensitivity to Glibenclamide or other sulfonylureas.
Interactions
Medications: Other diabetes medications, beta-blockers, certain diuretics, corticosteroids, and drugs that can either increase or decrease blood sugar levels.
Alcohol: Can potentiate the hypoglycemic effect and increase the risk of severe hypoglycemia.
Monitoring
Blood Glucose Levels: Regular monitoring is crucial to avoid hypoglycemia and ensure effective diabetes management.
Renal and Liver Function: Periodic tests to detect any potential renal or hepatic issues.
Benefits
Effective Glycemic Control: Helps maintain target blood sugar levels, reducing the risk of diabetes-related complications.
Once-Daily Dosing: Simplifies the treatment regimen, enhancing patient compliance.
Price
The cost of GLIBIMIDE 5 can vary depending on the pharmacy and region. Patients are advised to check with local pharmacies for specific pricing information.
Conclusion
GLIBIMIDE 5 is a reliable and effective option for managing type 2 diabetes mellitus, particularly when lifestyle changes are insufficient. By stimulating insulin release, it helps maintain appropriate blood sugar levels, thereby preventing complications.
