1. WHAT GLUCIENT SR IS AND WHAT IS IT  
    USED FOR
Glucient SR prolonged release tablets contain 
the active ingredient metformin hydrochloride 
and belong to a group of medicines called 
biguanides, used in the treatment of diabetes 
Glucient SR is used for the treatment of Type 2 
(non-insulin dependant) diabetes mellitus when 
diet and exercise changes alone have not been 
enough to control blood glucose (sugar).
Insulin is a hormone that enables body tissues to 
take glucose from the blood and to use it for 
energy or for storage for future use. People with 
Type 2 diabetes do not make enough insulin in 
their pancreas or their body does not respond 
properly to the insulin it does make. This causes 
a build-up of glucose in the blood which can 
cause a number of serious long-term problems 
so it is important that you continue to take your 
medicine, even though you may not have any 
obvious symptoms. Glucient SR makes the body 
more sensitive to insulin and helps return to 
normal the way your body uses glucose.
Glucient SR is associated with either a stable 
body weight or modest weight loss.
Glucient SR Prolonged Release Tablets are 
specially made
