Description:
Gemer 1 Tablet PR is an anti-diabetic medication composed of two active ingredients that work together to manage type 2 diabetes mellitus in adults. It helps regulate blood sugar levels and is most effective when combined with a healthy diet, regular physical activity, and weight management. The tablet should be taken with food, preferably at the same time each day, as prescribed by your doctor. Your dosage may be adjusted based on your blood sugar response, and it is important to continue the medication even if you feel well to avoid complications like kidney damage, nerve issues, vision problems, or limb loss.
Common side effects include low blood sugar (hypoglycemia), which may present as sweating, dizziness, shaking, or headache. To manage or prevent hypoglycemia, ensure you eat regular meals and keep a fast-acting sugar source, such as fruit juice or candy, on hand. Alcohol consumption should be avoided as it may heighten the risk of low blood sugar. Other possible side effects include nausea, diarrhea, stomach discomfort, altered taste, headache, and upper respiratory infections. Weight gain may also occur in some individuals.
This medication is not suitable for people with type 1 diabetes, diabetic ketoacidosis, or those with severe liver or kidney conditions. Inform your doctor if you have a history of heart disease. Pregnant or breastfeeding women should seek medical advice before starting this medicine. Regular monitoring of blood sugar levels and periodic lab tests may be required to assess your response to treatment and check for any side effects on liver function or blood cells.
