Directions for Use of Semi Daonil Tablet 10

Swallow the tablet whole with a glass of water without crushing or chewing it.
Do not exceed the recommended dose without consulting your doctor.

Semi-Daonil Tablet is taken orally.

Semi-Daonil Tablet may have the following side effects:

Hypoglycaemia: This refers to unusually low levels of blood sugar, which might result in symptoms like confusion, rapid heartbeat, shakiness, and sweating.
Headache
Dizziness
Nausea
Vomiting
Weight gain
Abdominal pain
Diarrhoea
Constipation

Managing the Side Effects:

Most side effects are temporary and generally harmless, which are resolved by discontinuing the use of Semi-Daonil Tablet. However, if you experience any serious side effects or worsening of any of the symptoms, please consult your doctor. Here are some general guidelines for managing common side effects:

Hypoglycaemia: Always have a source of glucose handy to manage sudden drops in blood sugar levels.
Nausea/Vomiting: Try taking Semi-Daonil Tablet with food or milk to reduce these effects.

Semi-Daonil Tablet contains glibenclamide (2.5 mg) and works on the body in the following ways:

Stimulates Insulin Secretion: Glibenclamide stimulates the pancreas to release more insulin. This happens because glibenclamide blocks ATP-sensitive potassium channels on pancreatic beta cells. Pancreatic beta cells are responsible for producing insulin in our body.
Enhances Insulin Sensitivity: Apart from stimulating insulin secretion, glibenclamide also increases the sensitivity of peripheral tissues to insulin. This process enhances the uptake and utilization of glucose by body tissues, helping to manage blood glucose levels effectively.

Pregnancy

Semi-Daonil Tablet is not recommended during pregnancy. If you are pregnant or planning to conceive, it's important to discuss this with your doctor before starting this medicine.

Breastfeeding

This medicine is not advised for breastfeeding women. Consult your doctor about potential risks and benefits.

Alcohol

Avoid consuming alcohol while taking Semi-Daonil Tablet, as it can intensify the medicine's blood sugar-lowering effect.

Liver

If you have liver problems, caution is needed when taking Semi-Daonil Tablet. As this medication may affect liver function, discuss your health status with your doctor before starting treatment.

Kidney

Caution is advised when using Semi-Daonil Tablet if you have a history of kidney problems. Make sure to consult your doctor before taking this medication.

Using Machines & Driving

Semi-Daonil Tablet may cause dizziness or confusion as side effects, which could affect your ability to drive or operate machinery. It's best to avoid such activities until you know how the medication affects you.

Allergy

Do not take Semi-Daonil Tablet if you are allergic to glibenclamide or any other ingredients in the formulation. Consult your doctor for alternative medications if necessary.

Children

Semi-Daonil Tablet is not recommended for children under 18 years of age. Always consult your doctor before giving any medicine to a child.

Older Patients

Older patients should take Semi-Daonil Tablet under medical supervision as they may be more susceptible to its side effects, particularly hypoglycemia (low blood sugar). Caution is advised if patients are over 70 years of age. Your doctor will guide you based on your health status.

Drug-Drug Interactions

Semi-Daonil Tablet interacts with the following medicines:

Beta-blockers: Medicines like propranolol or metoprolol may potentially increase the risk of low blood sugar or hypoglycemia when taken with Semi-Daonil Tablet.
Corticosteroids: Medications such as prednisone or cortisone may reduce the blood sugar-lowering effect of Semi-Daonil Tablet.
Thiazide diuretics: Medicines like hydrochlorothiazide can decrease the effect of Semi-Daonil Tablet on reducing blood glucose levels.
Thyroid medications: Thyroid medication such as levothyroxine may antagonise the glucose-lowering effect of Semi-Daonil Tablet.
Oral contraceptives: Birth control pills like ethinyl estradiol or norethindrone may decrease the efficacy of Semi-Daonil Tablet in managing blood sugar levels.

Missed Dose

If you forget to take your Semi-Daonil Tablet, take it as soon as you remember. However, if it is nearly time for your next dose, skip the missed one and continue with your regular schedule. Never double up on doses to compensate for a missed dose without consulting your doctor.
