Excessive gas (flatulence) is a known side effect of Glychek-M 40/500 Tablet (Gliclazide and Metformin). Taking the tablet with meals, avoiding very spicy or fatty foods, and reducing fizzy drinks may help relieve the symptoms. If the problem persists, please consult your doctor, as a dose adjustment or an alternative medicine may be needed.

Taking the tablet with or immediately after meals rather than on an empty stomach may significantly reduce gas (flatulence). Avoid fried foods, sugary drinks, and large meals, and eat slowly to help your gut tolerate the medicine better and reduce bloating. If symptoms persist, consult your doctor about adjusting the dose or exploring an alternative formulation.
