Composition of 1 tablet:
- active substance: gliclazide - 30 mg;
- auxiliary components: microcrystalline cellulose - 123 mg; hypromellose - 44 mg; magnesium stearate - 2 mg; colloidal silicon dioxide - 1 mg.
Pharmacological properties
Pharmacodynamics
Glidiab MV belongs to the number of oral hypoglycemic drugs. The active ingredient is gliclazide, a derivative of II generation sulfonylurea.
The main effects of gliclazide:
- stimulation of insulin secretion by β-cells of the pancreas;
- increased sensitivity of peripheral tissues to insulin;
- restoration of the early peak of insulin secretion (which distinguishes Glidiab MV from other sulfonylurea derivatives, which have an effect to a greater extent during the second stage of secretion);
- decrease in the interval from the moment of eating to the beginning of insulin secretion;
- stimulation of the activity of intracellular enzymes - muscle glycogen synthetase;
- increased insulin-secretory action of glucose;
- decrease in postprandial increase in glucose levels;
- improvement of microcirculation, which manifests itself as a decrease in adhesion and aggregation of platelets, normalization of vascular permeability, prevention of the development of atherosclerosis and microthrombosis, restoration of physiological parietal fibrinolysis;
- slowing down the development of diabetic retinopathy at the nonproliferative stage; against the background of long-term use in diabetic nephropathy leads to a significant decrease in the severity of proteinuria;
- decreased sensitivity of vascular receptors to adrenaline.
Glidiab MV does not lead to an increase in body weight, since it has a predominant effect on the early peak of insulin secretion and does not cause hyperinsulinemia. In obese patients, with an appropriate diet, therapy promotes weight loss.
Pharmacokinetics
Gliclazide after oral administration is almost completely absorbed from the gastrointestinal tract. Its plasma concentration increases gradually and reaches a maximum within 6–12 hours. Food intake has no effect on the absorption of the substance.
With a daily intake of a single dose of Glidiab MB, an effective therapeutic plasma concentration of gliclazide is provided for 24 hours.
Plasma protein binding is approximately 95%.
Metabolism occurs in the liver with the subsequent formation of inactive metabolites.
T 1/2 (half-life) is approximately 16 hours. It is excreted mainly by the kidneys in the form of metabolites; about 1% of the substance is excreted unchanged in the urine.
Indications for use
According to the instructions, Glidiab MB is prescribed for the treatment of type 2 diabetes mellitus in combination with diet therapy and moderate physical activity in case of ineffectiveness of the latter.
Also, the drug is used in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus in order to prevent complications of diabetes mellitus to reduce the risk of macro- and microvascular complications (retinopathy, nephropathy, stroke, myocardial infarction) by intensive glycemic control.

Instructions for the use of Glidiab MB: method and dosage
Glidiab MV is taken orally, once a day with breakfast.
The dose of the drug is selected by the doctor individually based on the clinical manifestations of the disease, fasting glucose levels and 2 hours after eating.
The initial daily dose is 1 tablet. In the future, if necessary, the dose is increased with a break of at least 2 weeks. The maximum dose is 4 tablets per day.
It is possible to switch from Glidiab to Glidiab MV in a daily dose of 1–4 tablets.
Therapy can be combined with other hypoglycemic agents: biguanides, insulin or alpha-glucosidase inhibitors.
Side effects
- endocrine system: hypoglycemia (in cases of violation of the dosage regimen and inadequate diet) - headache, feeling of hunger, helplessness and fatigue, sweating, severe weakness, inattention, aggressiveness, irritability, anxiety, convulsions, shallow breathing, loss of consciousness, delayed reaction, impossibility focus, blurred vision, depression, aphasia, tremor, sensory disturbances, dizziness, bradycardia, loss of self-control, delirium, hypersomnia;
- hematopoietic system: thrombocytopenia, anemia, leukopenia;
- digestive system: dyspepsia (manifested in the form of nausea, diarrhea, a feeling of heaviness in the epigastrium), anorexia (its severity when taking Glidiab MV decreases with food), liver dysfunctions (manifested in the form of increased activity of hepatic transaminases, cholestatic jaundice);
- allergic reactions: itching, maculopapular rash, urticaria.
Overdose
The main symptoms: hypoglycemia is possible up to the development of hypoglycemic coma.
Therapy: if the patient is conscious, ingestion of easily digestible carbohydrates (sugar) is indicated; in case of loss of consciousness, a 40% solution of dextrose (glucose) is injected intravenously, glucagon in a dose of 1-2 mg intramuscularly. In order to avoid the re-development of hypoglycemia after the restoration of consciousness, the patient should be given food rich in easily digestible carbohydrates.
special instructions
During therapy, hypoglycemia may develop, sometimes in a prolonged / severe form (hospitalization and intravenous administration of dextrose solution for several days may be required).
The use of Glidiab CF is possible only if the patient regularly eats, including breakfast. It is very important to ensure that you maintain an adequate intake of carbohydrates in your diet to reduce the likelihood of hypoglycemia. In most cases, the development of hypoglycemia is observed with a low-calorie diet, after drinking alcohol and performing vigorous / prolonged physical exercises, and also while taking several hypoglycemic drugs at the same time.
Symptoms of hypoglycemia usually resolve after eating carbohydrate-rich foods (sweeteners do not help eliminate symptoms). According to the experience of using other sulfonylurea derivatives, it should be borne in mind that, despite the effective initial relief of this condition, hypoglycemia may recur. With a pronounced nature of the symptoms or their prolonged course, patients need emergency medical care, up to hospitalization, even with a temporary improvement in their condition after eating carbohydrate-rich food.
To reduce the risk of hypoglycemia, careful selection of drugs and their use regimen is required, and the patient should also be informed about the features of therapy.
An increased risk of hypoglycemia occurs in the following cases:
- inability / refusal of the patient (especially elderly patients) to comply with the doctor's prescriptions and control their condition;
- irregular / inadequate nutrition, skipping meals, dietary changes and fasting;
- imbalance between the amount of carbohydrates taken and physical activity;
- diseases of the thyroid gland, adrenal / pituitary insufficiency and some other endocrine disorders;
- overdose of Glidiab MB;
- severe liver failure;
- renal failure;
- combined use with certain drugs.
In patients with a deficiency of glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase, Glidiab MB can lead to the development of hemolytic anemia (before prescribing the drug, it is necessary to assess the possibility of using a hypoglycemic drug belonging to another group).
While taking Glidiab MB, glycemic control may be weakened in the following cases: trauma, fever, infectious diseases, or major surgical interventions (it may be necessary to stop using the drug and switch to insulin therapy).
After a long period of treatment in many patients, the effectiveness of Glidiab MB may decrease, which is probably associated with the progression of the underlying disease or a decrease in the therapeutic response to the drug. This phenomenon is secondary drug resistance, it must be distinguished from the primary one, in which therapy does not give the expected clinical effect from the moment of administration. Prior to diagnosing secondary drug resistance, an assessment of patient compliance with the prescribed diet and adequacy of dose selection should be performed.
To assess glycemic control, it is recommended to regularly determine the parameters of glycosylated hemoglobin and fasting blood glucose. Regular self-monitoring of blood glucose concentration is also advisable.
Influence on the ability to drive vehicles and complex mechanisms
While driving, patients should take into account the likelihood of developing hypoglycemia.
Application during pregnancy and lactation
Pregnancy and lactation are contraindications for taking Glidiab MB 30 mg.
In pregnant women, insulin is the drug of choice for the treatment of diabetes mellitus. There are no data on whether gliclazide passes into breast milk.
Pediatric use
Glidiab CF is not prescribed for patients under the age of 18.
With impaired renal function
- impaired renal function in severe course: therapy is contraindicated;
- impaired renal function: the drug is prescribed with caution.
For violations of liver function
- hepatic dysfunction in severe course: therapy is contraindicated;
- hepatic dysfunction: the drug is prescribed with caution.
Use in the elderly
Glidiab CF is prescribed with caution in elderly patients.
Drug interactions
Combinations in which blood glucose may increase (weakening of the action of gliclazide):
- danazol: the combination is not recommended; the drug has a diabetogenic effect; if it is impossible to replace it with another drug, the concentration of glucose in the blood should be monitored; during combined therapy and after its completion, the doctor can adjust the dose of Glidiab MB;
- chlorpromazine (in a daily dose of 100 mg): the combination requires caution, since there is an increase in the concentration of glucose in the blood and a decrease in insulin secretion; if it is impossible to replace it with another drug, the concentration of glucose in the blood should be monitored; during combined therapy and after its completion, the doctor can adjust the dose of Glidiab MB;
- tetracosactide and glucocorticosteroids (local / systemic use: intra-articular, rectal and external administration): the combination requires caution, since there is an increase in blood glucose concentration with the possible development of ketoacidosis; it is recommended to carefully monitor the concentration of glucose in the blood, especially at the beginning of therapy; during combined therapy and after its completion, the doctor can adjust the dose of Glidiab MB;
- salbutamol, ritodrin, terbutaline (intravenous): the combination requires caution;
- anticoagulants (in particular, warfarin): increasing the action of anticoagulants (their dose may need to be adjusted).
Combinations in which the risk of developing hypoglycemia increases (increased action of gliclazide):
- miconazole (systemic or topical application in the form of a gel on the mucous membranes of the oral cavity): the combination is contraindicated, since hypoglycemia may develop up to a coma;
- phenylbutazone (systemic administration): the combination is not recommended; if it is impossible to replace it with another drug, the concentration of glucose in the blood should be monitored; during combined therapy and after its completion, the doctor can adjust the dose of Glidiab MB;
- ethanol: the combination is not recommended, which is associated with increased hypoglycemia and the likelihood of developing hypoglycemic coma;
- Other hypoglycemic agents (insulin, alpha-glucosidase inhibitors, metformin, thiazolidinediones, inhibitors of dipeptidyl peptidase-4 agonists, glucagon-like peptide-1), non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs, fluconazole, beta-blockers, angiotensin converting enzyme inhibitors (captopril, enalapril), blockers of H 2 - histamine receptors, monoamine oxidase inhibitors, clarithromycin, sulfonamides: the combination requires caution.
