Medicine information
Uses & overview
TRI - GLICLAGLAZE 40 is a triple-combination oral antidiabetic formulation marketed by Steris Healthcare. It combines Gliclazide IP 40 mg, Pioglitazone Hydrochloride IP 15 mg, and Metformin Hydrochloride IP 500 mg to support blood glucose management in adults with type 2 diabetes mellitus when considered appropriate by a qualified healthcare professional. Each active ingredient works through a different mechanism. Gliclazide belongs to the sulfonylurea class and stimulates insulin release from the pancreas. Pioglitazone is a thiazolidinedione that improves the body's sensitivity to insulin. Metformin helps reduce glucose production in the liver and improves insulin sensitivity. This combination may be prescribed when multiple medicines are needed to help achieve individualized blood glucose targets. Treatment should be accompanied by a suitable diet, regular physical activity, and blood glucose monitoring as recommended by the treating physician. TRI - GLICLAGLAZE 40 should be used only as prescribed. The suitability of this combination depends on the patient's medical history, kidney and liver function, heart health, and risk of low blood sugar.
