WHAT ENYGLID IS AND WHAT IT IS USED FOR Enyglid is an oral antidiabetic medicine 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. Enyglid is used to control type 2 diabetes in adults 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. Enyglid can also be given with metformin, another medicine for diabetes. Enyglid has been shown to lower the blood sugar, which helps to prevent complications from your diabetes. 2. WHAT YOU NEED TO KNOW BEFORE YOU TAKE ENYGLID DO NOT TAKE ENYGLID if you are ALLERGIC to repaglinide or any of the other ingredients of this medicine (listed in section 6). if you have TYPE 1 DIABETES. if the acid level in your blood is raised (DIABETIC KETOACIDOSIS). if you have a SEVERE LIVER DISEASE. קרא את המסמך השלם

CLINICAL PARTICULARS 4.1 THERAPEUTIC INDICATIONS Repaglinide is indicated in adults with type 2 diabetes mellitus whose hyperglycaemia can no longer be controlled satisfactorily by diet, weight reduction and exercise. Repaglinide is also indicated in combination with metformin in adults with type 2 diabetes mellitus who are not satisfactorily controlled on metformin alone. Treatment should be initiated as an adjunct to diet and exercise to lower the blood glucose in relation to meals. 4.2 POSOLOGY AND METHOD OF ADMINISTRATION Posology Repaglinide is given preprandially and is titrated individually to optimise glycaemic control. In addition to the usual self-monitoring by the patient of blood and/or urinary glucose, the patient's blood glucose must be monitored periodically by the physician to determine the minimum effective dose for the patient. Glycosylated haemoglobin levels are also of value in monitoring the patient's response to therapy. Periodic monitoring is necessary to detect inadequate lowering of blood glucose at the recommended maximum dose level (i.e. primary failure) and to detect loss of adequate blood-glucose- 3 lowering response after an initial period of effectiveness (i.e. secondary failure).
