Diabetes Medications by Pharmacy |
|
Gliclazide |
Brand /
Generic |
| Gliclazide Generic Diamicron ® is an oral
antidiabetic agent for treatment of type 2 diabetes.
Gliclazide stimulates insulin secretion from functional
pancreatic #946-cells and increases the sensitivity of the
#946-cells to a glucose stimulus some residual #946-cell
function is therefore necessary. Gliclazide restores the
diminished first-phase of insulin secretion noted in
non-insulin dependant diabetes mellitus. |
| Metformin (Generic Glucophage ®) is an
oral medication used along with a diet and exercise
program to control high blood sugar in patients with type
2 diabetes. With Type 2 diabetes, insulin produced by the
pancreas is not able to get sugar into the cells of the
body where it can work properly . Metformin does not help
patients who have insulin-dependent or type 1 diabetes
because they cannot produce insulin from their pancreas
gland. Their blood glucose is best controlled by insulin
injections. |
| Nateglinide (Generic Starlix®) is an oral
antidiabetic agent is used alone or in combination with
other medications to treat type 2 (noninsulin-dependent)
diabetes (formerly called 'adult-onset') in people whose
diabetes cannot be controlled by diet and exercise alone.
Nateglinide belongs to a class of drugs called
meglitinides. Nateglinide helps your body regulate the
amount of glucose (sugar) in your blood. It decreases the
amount of glucose by stimulating the pancreas to release
insulin. |
|
Pioglitazone Hydrochloride |
Generic |
| Pioglitazone Hydrochloride (Generic
Actos®) is an oral antidiabetic agent for treatment of
type 2 diabetes. Pioglitazone effectively reduces insulin
resistance, fasting insulin levels, and blood glucose,
along with healthy eating and physical activity, works by
helping the body use its naturally produced insulin, or
administered insulin in type 2 diabetes, to help use
glucose as a fuel and reduce the harmful buildup of
glucose. |
| Rosiglitazone maleate (Generic Avandia®)
is an oral antidiabetic agent for treatment of type 2
diabetes. Rosiglitazone maleate is an insulin-sensitizing
drug called— a TZD. TZDs target a special "receptor site"
at the center of certain cells. This decreases the cells'
resistance to insulin and allows more sugar to enter. As
more sugar enters the cells, sugar and insulin levels in
the bloodstream drop. This results in lower blood sugar
levels. |
