Glinides (also called meglitinides) are used to treat Type 2 diabetes. They work by stimulating your pancreas to release more insulin, which helps lower your blood sugar. These medications are available as oral tablets. Examples include repaglinide and nateglinide. You can discuss with your healthcare team which option might be right for you.
REPAGLINIDE treats type 2 diabetes. It works by increasing insulin levels in your body, which decreases your blood sugar (glucose). Changes to diet and exercise are often combined with this medication.
NATEGLINIDE treats type 2 diabetes. It works by increasing insulin levels in your body, which decreases your blood sugar (glucose). Changes to diet and exercise are often combined with this medication.
