Product Description

Euclide M 30 OD Tablet is an anti-diabetic medicine manufactured by Alkem Pharma. It combines Gliclazide, a sulfonylurea that stimulates the pancreas to release more insulin, and Metformin, a biguanide that lowers glucose production in the liver and improves insulin sensitivity. This dual action helps patients with type 2 diabetes effectively control their blood sugar levels. When used along with proper diet and exercise, it reduces the risk of serious complications like kidney damage, heart attack, stroke, and blindness.
