Diamicron MR (active ingredient: gliclazide) is a prescription medication indicated for the following:

  • Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus: Diamicron MR is used to improve glycemic control in adults with type 2 diabetes mellitus as an adjunct to diet and exercise when lifestyle modifications alone are insufficient.

Diamicron MR belongs to a class of drugs known as sulfonylureas, which work by stimulating the release of insulin from the beta cells of the pancreas, thereby helping to lower blood glucose levels.

Diamicron (gliclazide) is available in Modified Release (MR) Tablets to be taken orally by mouth. The MR formulation is designed to release the medication slowly over a long time, allowing for once-daily dosing. Take the tablets whole with a glass of water, and not to chew or crush them unless specifically instructed to do so by a healthcare provider.

The recommended initial dose for Diamicron MR is 30 mg taken once daily at breakfast time. Your doctor may adjust the dosage every 2 weeks based on your blood glucose levels, gradually increasing it to a maximum of 120 mg daily. Take Diamicron with a glass of water and do not chew or crush the tablets.
