Why is Micronase prescribed?
Doctors prescribe Micronase to treat type 2 diabetes; this is an oral antidiabetic medication. In patients with type 2 diabetes the body either does not make enough insulin or fails to use insulin properly. Sugar is transfered by the insulin from the bloodstream to the body's cells, where it is then used for energy.
Micronase 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.
Remember that Micronase 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.
