Amaryl 1mg Tablet, a sulfonylurea antidiabetic, is prescribed to lower elevated blood sugar levels in Type 2 diabetes (non-insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus - NIDDM). It addresses insufficient insulin production or ineffective insulin function in this condition.
Containing Glimepiride, Amaryl 1mg Tablet influences insulin-secreting beta cells in the pancreas. By activating calcium channels in these cells, it facilitates insulin release. This insulin prompts cells to absorb glucose, reducing elevated blood sugar and managing Type 2 diabetes symptoms.
Administer Amaryl 1mg Tablet as directed by your doctor. Allergic reactions, liver issues, seizures, low glucose levels, and other side effects may occur, but most are self-resolving. Do not halt usage without consulting your doctor, as abrupt discontinuation can elevate sugar levels and risk complications like retinopathy, nephropathy, and neuropathy. Amaryl 1mg Tablet is unsuitable for Type 1 diabetes or severe kidney/liver disease. Inform your doctor about heart conditions, pregnancy plans, or breastfeeding intentions.
Avoid consumption of alcohol while taking Amaryl 1mg Tablet as it may increase the risk of unwanted side effects.
Avoid using Amaryl 1mg tablets during pregnancy. Notify your doctor if you are pregnant, suspect pregnancy, or have pregnancy plans. Your doctor might consider transitioning you to insulin therapy.
Glimepiride can pass into breast milk and should be avoided while breastfeeding. If you're taking Amaryl 1mg tablets (under a doctor's prescription) and breastfeeding, closely observe your baby for indications of low blood glucose, such as restlessness, drowsiness, feeding difficulties, seizures, or low body temperature.
Do not drive or operate any heavy tools or machines if your ability is affected by Amaryl 1mg Tablet.
Amaryl 1mg Tablet is cautioned against in individuals with severe kidney issues and should be used cautiously in those with other kidney problems. Therefore, seek advice from your doctor before using it.
Amaryl 1mg Tablet is not recommended for use in patients with severe liver problems and should be used cautiously in patients with other liver issues. Hence, consult your doctor prior to taking it.
Amaryl 1mg Tablet is an antidiabetic medicine. It stimulates the pancreas to secrete more insulin (a hormone involved in glucose metabolism). It also makes our body more sensitive to insulin which helps in digesting the circulating sugars (glucose) in the blood, thereby reducing blood sugar levels.
Glimepiride is prescribed to patients with type 2 diabetes when their hyperglycemia cannot be managed through diet, exercise, and weight loss alone. It is used to lower blood glucose levels by either supplementing diet or in combination with oral hypoglycemic agents. In cases where diet and exercise are insufficient or with an oral hypoglycemic agent, glimepiride can also be combined with insulin to effectively control blood sugar levels.
Glimepiride stimulates the insulin release from pancreatic β-cells and reduces glucose output from the liver. It also increases insulin sensitivity at peripheral target sites.
Administration
Anabolic steroids, male sex hormones, chloramphenicol, coumarin derivatives, Fluoxetine, MAO inhibitors, Miconazole, Para-aminosalicylic acid, Pentoxifylline (high dose parenteral), Phenylbutazone, Oxyphenbutazone, quinolones, salicylates, sulphonamides, tetracyclines, and beta blockers may all potentiate the With Acetazolamide, barbiturates, corticosteroids, Diazoxide, diuretics, epinephrine, and other sympathomimetic agents, laxatives, estrogens and progestogens, phenothiazines, phenytoin, Rifampicin, and thyroid hormones, the blood sugar-lowering effect may be lessened. Clonidine and Reserpine are H2 -receptor antagonists that may either strengthen or weaken the blood sugar-lowering effect. Acute and long-term alcohol use may unexpectedly strengthen or weaken Glimepiride's ability to lower blood sugar.
Glimepiride is not suitable for the treatment of insulin-dependent (type-I) diabetes mellitus, or of diabetic pre-coma or coma. Glimepiride must not be used in patients hypersensitive to Glimepiride or other sulphonylureas.
Glimepiride must not be taken during pregnancy; a changeover to Insulin is necessary. Patients planning a pregnancy must inform their physician and should be shifted to Insulin. Lactation: Ingestion of Glimepiride with breast milk may harm the child. Therefore, Glimepiride must not be taken by lactating women. Either a changeover or a complete discontinuation of breastfeeding is necessary.
Do not store at temperatures above 30°C. Keep out of the reach of youngsters and away from light.
