4 CLINICAL PARTICULARS
4.1 THERAPEUTIC INDICATIONS
Non insulin-dependent diabetes (type 2) in adults when dietary
measures, physical exercise and weight loss alone are not
sufficient to control blood glucose.
4.2 POSOLOGY AND METHOD OF ADMINISTRATION
Posology
The daily dose may vary from 1 to 4 tablets per day, _i.e_. from 30 to
120 mg taken orally in a single intake at breakfast time.
It is recommended that the tablet(s) be swallowed whole.
If a dose is forgotten, there must be no increase in the dose taken
the next day.
As with any hypoglycaemic agent, the dose should be adjusted according
to the individual patient's metabolic response (blood
glucose, HbAlc)
• Initial dose
The recommended starting dose is 30 mg daily.
If blood glucose is effectively controlled, this dose may be used for
maintenance treatment.
If blood glucose is not adequately controlled, the dose may be
increased to 60, 90 or 120 mg daily, in successive steps. The
interval between each dose increment should be at least 1 month except
in patients whose blood glucose has not reduced
after two weeks of treatment. In such cases, the dose may be increased
at the end of the second week of treatment.
The maximum recommended daily dose is 120 mg.
• Switching from Diamicron 80 mg tablets to DIAMICRON MR 30 mg
modified release tablets:
1 tablet of Diamicron 80 mg is comparable to1 tablet of DIAMICRON MR
30 mg. Consequently the switch can be performed
with careful blood monitoring.
• Switching from another oral antidiabetic agent to DIAMICRON MR 30
mg:
DIAMICRON MR 30 mg can be used to replace other oral ant
