Product introduction
Rosicon G 2mg/1mg Tablet should be taken in the dose and duration as advised by your doctor. It must be taken with food to avoid stomach upset. If you miss a dose, take it as soon as possible. However, if it is almost time for your next dose, skip the missed dose and go back to your regular schedule. Do not double the dose. Overdose may lead to low blood sugar (hypoglycemia).
Some people may develop hypoglycemia (low blood sugar level) when this medicine is taken along with other antidiabetic medicines, alcohol or upon skipping a meal. Monitor your blood sugar levels regularly while taking it. Other common side effects of this medicine include nausea, taste changes, diarrhea, stomach pain, headache, edema (swelling), blurred vision, bone fracture, and respiratory tract infection. However, these are temporary and usually subside on their own. If these do not resolve or bother you, please consult your doctor.
Before taking this medicine, inform your doctor if you have any kidney, liver or heart problems. Pregnant or breastfeeding women should also consult their doctor before taking it. Your doctor will check your kidney function tests before starting treatment with it. Avoid excessive alcohol intake while taking it as this may increase the risk of developing some side effects.
Uses of Rosicon G Tablet
Benefits of Rosicon G Tablet
Type 2 diabetes is a chronic condition where the body does not use insulin properly, leading to high blood sugar levels over time. This can harm vital organs such as the heart, eyes, kidneys, and nerves. Rosicon G 2mg/1mg Tablet improves the body’s sensitivity to insulin, allowing it to use insulin more effectively. It stimulates the pancreas to release more insulin, especially after meals. Overall, this medicine helps control blood sugar levels more effectively, reducing the risk of diabetes-related complications.
