Description
DiaBeta Generic names: Glyburide Brand names: Micronase,DiaBeta,Glynase Other brand names: DiaBeta, Glynase Why is DiaBeta prescribed? DiaBeta is an oral antidiabetic medication used to treat type 2 diabetes, the kind that occurs when the body either does not make enough insulin or fails to use insulin properly. Insulin transfers sugar from the bloodstream to the body\'s cells, where it is then used for energy. There are two forms of diabetes: type 1 and type 2. Type 1 diabetes results from a complete shutdown of normal insulin production and usually requires insulin injections for life, while type 2 diabetes can usually be treated by dietary changes, exercise, and/or oral antidiabetic medications such as DiaBeta. This medication controls diabetes by stimulating the pancreas to produce more insulin and by helping insulin to work better. Type 2 diabetics may need insulin injections, sometimes only temporarily during stressful periods such as illness, or on a long-term basis if an oral antidiabetic medication fails to control blood sugar. DiaBeta can be used alone or along with a drug called metformin (Glucophage) if diet plus either drug alone fails to control sugar levels. Most important fact about DiaBeta Always remember that DiaBeta is an aid to, not a substitute for, good diet and exercise. Failure to follow a sound diet and exercise plan can lead to serious complications, such as dangerously high or low blood sugar levels. Remember, too, that DiaBeta is not an oral form of insulin, and cannot be used in place of insulin.
