IS THIS A JOKE? ALL DRUGS ARE FOREIGN BODIES AND HENCE MUST BE CONSUMED IN CONTROLLED MANNER AS PRESCRIBED BY A MEDICAL PROFESSIONAL.I BELIEVE WE ARE ALL AWARE OF THIS WELL ESTABLISHED PRACTICE.

Mr Naidu

You seem to have suicidal tendency. Please do not do such things . Please go to a psychiatric counsellor and discuss what you have done.

If the victim has collapsed or is not breathing, call local emergency services.

Repaglinide (generic name) Gluconorm SR (brand name) is used to treat type 2 diabetes (condition in which the body does not use insulin normally and, therefore, cannot control the amount of sugar in the blood). Repaglinide helps your body regulate the amount of glucose (sugar) in your blood. It decreases the amount of glucose by stimulating the pancreas to release insulin.

This drug may cause hypoglycemia (low blood sugar) in normal persons. If the blood sugar falls below 70 mg/dL, the following adverse symptoms will appear.

* Double vision or blurry vision

* Fast or pounding heartbeat

* Feeling cranky or acting aggressive

* Feeling nervous

* Headache

* Hunger

* Shaking or trembling

* Sweating

* Tingling or numbness of the skin

* Tiredness or weakness

* Trouble sleeping

* Unclear thinking

If the blood sugar falls below 40 mg/dL, fainting, seizure, coma or death may occur.

It is not Gluconorm ( Repaglinide) . It is Gluconorm SR 500 (Metformin SR).
