Glicafine M 60/500 is a combination anti-diabetic medicine containing Gliclazide 60 mg and Metformin Hydrochloride 500 mg. It is widely prescribed for the management of Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus in patients whose blood sugar levels are not adequately controlled with metformin alone.
Gliclazide (60 mg): A sulfonylurea that works by stimulating the pancreas to release more insulin, helping to lower blood glucose levels.
Metformin Hydrochloride (500 mg): A biguanide that decreases glucose production in the liver, improves insulin sensitivity, and enhances glucose uptake by body tissues.
Together, this dual therapy helps in better glycemic control, reducing the risk of diabetes-related complications such as kidney damage, nerve problems, and cardiovascular issues.
Key Benefits:
Effective control of blood sugar levels in Type 2 Diabetes.
Combines two proven anti-diabetic agents for synergistic action.

Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus (when diet, exercise, and single-drug therapy are insufficient).
Dosage & Administration:
As directed by the physician. Dosage may vary depending on the patient’s blood sugar levels and overall health condition.
