FAQs

What is the best time to take Reclide -XR 60 Tablet?

Take Reclide -XR 60 Tablet before meals or exactly as instructed by your doctor. There is evidence stating that Reclide -XR 60 Tablet works best at controlling post meal high blood sugar levels when taken 30 minutes before breakfast.

Is Reclide -XR 60 Tablet the same as metformin?

No, Reclide -XR 60 Tablet is not the same as metformin. Although both these oral medicines are used in the treatment of type 2 diabetes, the way they work to reduce the sugar levels are different.

Yes, Reclide -XR 60 Tablet and metformin can be taken at the same time but only if prescribed by the doctor.

Follow the instructions given by your doctor strictly to avoid such complications.
