Glipizide: Indication, Dosage, Side Effect

Indication:

Glipizide is a prescription medicine used to help lower high blood sugar in people with type 2 diabetes. It is usually recommended when lifestyle changes like a healthy diet and regular exercise are not enough to control blood sugar levels. Glipizide works by stimulating the pancreas to produce more insulin, which helps reduce blood sugar. It helps prevent complications related to diabetes when taken as part of a full treatment plan.

Dosage:

Glipizide is usually started at a low dose, commonly 5 mg once daily before breakfast, and your doctor may adjust it based on your blood sugar response. The tablet should be swallowed whole with water—do not chew, crush, or break it. Although it can be taken with or without food, taking it about 30 minutes before a meal helps it work best. Taking it at the same time every day helps keep blood sugar levels stable.
