Sukkarto SR - Key Information

What is Sukkarto SR?

Sukkarto SR is a slow-release medication containing Metformin, a commonly used treatment for type 2 diabetes. Unlike regular Metformin, Sukkarto SR is designed to release the medication gradually into your body, which may help reduce side effects and make it more comfortable to take.

This slow-release formula helps to control blood sugar levels effectively throughout the day, offering a convenient alternative for people managing type 2 diabetes.

For more information on the prescription medication patients should refer to the Sukkarto SR patient information leaflet.

Usage Advice

How do I use Sukkarto SR to treat type-2 diabetes?

Sukkarto SR is prescribed when diet and exercise alone have not successfully controlled blood sugar levels after 3–6 months. This medication is specifically for managing type 2 diabetes, a condition where your body either doesn't produce enough insulin or doesn't use insulin effectively.

What Sukkarto SR Does:

  • Improves insulin sensitivity: It helps your body respond better to insulin.
  • Regulates blood sugar: It aids in restoring normal glucose usage in the body.
  • Prevents complications: Proper glucose control reduces the risk of long-term complications like heart disease and nerve damage.

Even if you don't notice symptoms, it’s important to continue taking Sukkarto SR as prescribed. Maintaining consistent blood sugar levels is essential for avoiding serious health issues over time. Always follow your doctor’s advice and take Sukkarto SR alongside a healthy lifestyle.

Side effects

What side effects can Sukkarto SR have?

While Sukkarto SR is effective for managing type 2 diabetes, it’s important to be aware of potential side effects. Contact your doctor immediately if you experience any of the following symptoms:

  • Vomiting
  • Stomach pain
  • Muscle cramps
  • Extreme tiredness
  • Difficulty breathing
  • Slower heartbeat
  • Feeling unusually cold (reduced body temperature)

These could indicate a serious issue, so don’t hesitate to seek medical advice if you notice any of these signs. Always follow your doctor’s instructions and read the patient information leaflet for more details.

Warnings & Precautions

Who cannot take Sukkarto SR?

Sukkarto SR is effective for managing type 2 diabetes but is not suitable for everyone. Do not take Sukkarto SR if you:

  • Are allergic to metformin or any other ingredients in the medication. Signs of an allergic reaction include rash, itching, or difficulty breathing.
  • Have severely reduced kidney function or a history of kidney problems.
  • Have uncontrolled diabetes with symptoms like:
    • Severe high blood sugar (hyperglycaemia)
    • Nausea, vomiting, or diarrhoea
    • Rapid weight loss
    • Lactic acidosis (a serious condition with symptoms like stomach pain, deep breathing, sleepiness, or breath with a fruity smell)
    • Ketoacidosis, characterised by ketone buildup in the blood leading to diabetic pre-coma.
  • Are dehydrated, as this increases the risk of kidney problems and lactic acidosis.
  • Have liver problems or a history of severe liver conditions.
  • Have a severe infection, such as lung, bronchial, or kidney infections, which may affect kidney function and increase the risk of lactic acidosis.
  • Have heart problems, including recent heart attacks, severe circulation issues, or breathing difficulties, as these can reduce oxygen supply to your tissues and increase the risk of lactic acidosis.
  • Drink excessive amounts of alcohol, as this may interact with the medication.
  • Are under 18 years old.

If you have any of these conditions, consult your doctor for alternative treatment options. Always follow your healthcare provider’s advice and check the patient leaflet for further information.
