The most important effect is low blood sugar (hypoglycaemia) from the gliclazide component — especially if a meal is missed or delayed, with heavy exercise, or with alcohol. Signs include shakiness, sweating, hunger, palpitations, dizziness, and confusion. Digestive effects from metformin are also common and usually ease with time: nausea, diarrhoea, abdominal discomfort, a metallic taste, and reduced appetite. Weight gain and, occasionally, skin rash can occur. Long-term metformin use can lower vitamin B12. Serious (seek medical attention): severe or prolonged low blood sugar (needs urgent treatment); lactic acidosis — a rare but serious build-up of acid in the blood (warning signs: unusual tiredness, muscle aches, difficulty breathing, feeling very cold, stomach pain, slow/irregular heartbeat); and, rarely, liver problems or significant blood-count changes.
Take one tablet once a day with or just after breakfast (your first main meal), at the same time each day. Swallow it whole with water — do not chew or crush it, as this affects the slow release. Taking it with food reduces stomach upset and the risk of low blood sugar.
Signs include sweating, shakiness, hunger, a pounding heart, dizziness, or confusion. Treat it quickly with a fast-acting sugar (glucose tablets, juice, or sugar), then eat a snack or meal. Always carry a sugar source; a severe episode or loss of consciousness needs emergency care.
If you are dehydrated (vomiting, diarrhoea, not eating/drinking) or scheduled for surgery or an X-ray/scan using contrast dye, tell your doctor — metformin may need to be paused to lower the risk of lactic acidosis, and doses may need adjusting. Do not stop or restart on your own.
Limit or avoid alcohol. It can cause unpredictable or severe low blood sugar with gliclazide and raises the risk of lactic acidosis with metformin. If you drink, do so in moderation and not on an empty stomach.
Yes — your doctor will monitor blood sugar (including HbA1c), kidney function, and sometimes liver function and vitamin B12. Use extra caution if you are elderly, have kidney or liver problems, eat irregularly, or are unwell, as these increase the risk of low blood sugar or lactic acidosis. Tell your doctor if you are pregnant or breastfeeding.
