Glipizide is a component used in diabetes treatment that lowers blood sugar.
MFDS ingredient code M256618
Glipizide is an oral diabetes medication that helps regulate blood sugar and belongs to the sulfonylurea class, which stimulates insulin secretion. It is primarily used for blood sugar management in patients with type 2 diabetes.
Glipizide acts on the beta cells of the pancreas to increase insulin secretion. This allows glucose in the blood to be absorbed more effectively by cells, thereby lowering blood sugar.
Approved uses differ by product. Check each product's information for its actual use.
Glipizide has a shorter duration of action and a relatively lower risk of side effects compared to other sulfonylurea medications. Additionally, it is characterized by a rapid onset of blood sugar-lowering effect.
