About Tricyblex 60 Tablet 10's

Tricyblex 60 Tablet 10's is a medicine that is used to treat Type 2 diabetes. Type 2 diabetes is a chronic or lifelong condition affecting how your body processes glucose. People with type 2 diabetes either do not produce enough insulin, or if at all the insulin is produced, it is unable to perform its function in the body (insulin resistance). Due to this, the blood glucose level increases and symptoms such as frequent urination, increased thirst and increased hunger start. It can lead to serious complications like skin infection, eye problems (retinopathy), nerve damage (neuropathy), diabetic foot (foot ulcer), kidney disease (nephropathy), high blood pressure, and even stroke.

Tricyblex 60 Tablet 10's contains Gliclazide, metformin and pioglitazone. Gliclazide is a 'sulfonylurea' that acts by increasing the insulin released by the pancreas. On the other hand, Metformin, which is a 'biguanide', acts by lowering the glucose production in the liver, delaying glucose absorption from the intestines and increasing the body's response to insulin. Pioglitazone works by decreasing the amount of glucose released by the liver and improving the sensitivity of tissues of muscles and fats towards insulin effects.

Tricyblex 60 Tablet 10's is available in oral tablet dosage form. You should take this medicine as prescribed by your doctor. You may experience side effects such as nausea, taste change, weight gain, vomiting, diarrhoea, stomach ache, and a respiratory infection. Some patients may experience a decline in blood sugar levels lower than normal (hypoglycemia), resulting in sweating, dizziness, headache, confusion, feeling hungry, temporary changes in vision, uneasiness, irritability, and weakness. In such cases, seek medical attention immediately. Tricyblex 60 Tablet 10's should be taken with food to avoid an upset stomach. Tricyblex 60 Tablet 10's should be taken at the same time of the day each time for the best results. For better advice, your doctor will decide what dose should be taken, which can change quickly depending on your condition. 

You should not take Tricyblex 60 Tablet 10's if you have diabetic ketoacidosis (excess acids in your blood). Do not take Tricyblex 60 Tablet 10's if you are allergic to any of its contents. Before taking Tricyblex 60 Tablet 10's, inform your doctor if you are taking other medicines, including prescription or non-prescription medicines, nutritional supplements, or herbal products. Tricyblex 60 Tablet 10's should not be stopped even if you feel better, without consulting your doctor as your sugar level keeps changing. If you stop taking Tricyblex 60 Tablet 10's abruptly, it may increase your sugar levels which could further increase the risk of eyesight loss (retinopathy), kidney (nephropathy) and nerve damage (neuropathy). Tricyblex 60 Tablet 10's should not be taken if you have type 1 diabetes mellitus or severe kidney or liver disease. Please inform your doctor if you have any heart disease, is or are planning to get pregnant or breastfeed. Tricyblex 60 Tablet 10's may cause ‘lactic acidosis’ (accumulation of lactic acid in the blood), which requires immediate medical attention. Do not consume alcohol (risk of lactic acidosis) or fast for prolonged periods (risk of hypoglycemia).
