1. WHAT REPAGLINIDE STADA IS AND WHAT IT IS USED FOR
Repaglinide STADA is an _ oral antidiabetic agent_ containing
repaglinide which helps your
pancreas produce more insulin and thereby lower your blood sugar
(glucose).
TYPE 2 DIABETES is a disease in which your pancreas does not make
enough insulin to control
the sugar in your blood or where your body does not respond normally
to the insulin it produces
(formerly known _as non-insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus or
maturity onset diabetes_).
Repaglinide STADA is used to control type 2 diabetes as an add-on to
diet and exercise:
treatment is usually started if diet, exercise and weight reduction
alone have not been able to
control (or lower) your blood sugar. Repaglinide STADA can also be
given with metformin,
another medicine for diabetes.
2. WHAT YOU NEED TO KNOW BEFORE YOU TAKE REPAGLINIDE STADA
DO NOT TAKE REPAGLINIDE STADA:

this medicine (listed in
