Dianorm-M Tablet is an anti-diabetic medication commonly used to manage type 2 diabetes mellitus in adults. It combines two medicines that work together to help control blood sugar levels, which is essential for preventing complications associated with diabetes.
This medicine should be taken with food, and it’s best to take it at the same time each day to ensure consistent results. Your doctor will determine the appropriate dose based on your individual needs and may adjust it according to your blood sugar levels. Even if your blood sugar levels seem controlled, it’s important to continue taking this medicine as prescribed. Stopping it without consulting your doctor can result in elevated blood sugar levels, which increases the risk of serious complications such as kidney damage, blindness, nerve problems, and limb loss. Dianorm-M is part of a broader treatment plan, which should also include a healthy diet, regular exercise, and weight management.
Common side effects include hypoglycemia (low blood sugar), constipation, and vomiting. It’s important to be aware of symptoms of low blood sugar, such as sweating, dizziness, headache, and shaking. To prevent hypoglycemia, ensure regular meals and always carry a quick source of glucose, such as sugary foods or fruit juice. Drinking alcohol can worsen low blood sugar, so it’s best avoided. Other possible side effects include changes in taste, nausea, diarrhea, stomach pain, headache, and upper respiratory tract infections. Some people may also experience weight gain.
You should not take Dianorm-M Tablet if you have type 1 diabetes, diabetic ketoacidosis, or severe kidney or liver disease. Inform your doctor if you have heart disease, as this medication may not be suitable for you. Pregnant or breastfeeding women should consult their doctor before using this medicine. Regular monitoring of blood sugar levels and periodic blood tests to check liver function and blood cell counts are recommended during treatment.
