GLUFIRST-G1 Tablet SR is an anti-diabetic medication combining two medicines to treat type 2 diabetes mellitus in adults, aiding in blood sugar level control.
Take GLUFIRST-G1 Tablet SR with food, consistently at the same time daily, adjusting the dosage as your doctor directs based on blood sugar levels.
Maintain your GLUFIRST-G1 regimen even when feeling well or with controlled blood sugar levels. Stopping without consulting your doctor can elevate blood sugar levels, risking kidney damage, blindness, nerve complications, and limb loss. It’s part of a comprehensive treatment plan that includes a healthy diet, regular exercise, and weight management as advised by your doctor.
Common side effects include hypoglycemia (low blood glucose levels), recognized by symptoms like sweating, dizziness, headache, and shaking. Always carry fast-acting glucose sources and avoid alcohol consumption to prevent these symptoms. Other potential side effects include taste changes, nausea, diarrhea, stomach pain, headache, and upper respiratory tract infection. Weight gain may also occur.
Avoid if you have type 1 diabetes, diabetic ketoacidosis, or severe kidney or liver disease. Inform your doctor of any heart disease history, and pregnant or breastfeeding women should consult their physician. Regular blood sugar level checks and occasional blood tests are advised.
