Opzide-MF Tablet 10's promotes insulin secretion from the beta cells of the pancreas and reduces the glucose output from the liver. It works by reducing the sugar production by cells in the liver and delaying sugar absorption from the intestines.
You are not recommended to stop taking Opzide-MF Tablet 10's on your own, as discontinuing Opzide-MF Tablet 10's suddenly may cause recurring symptoms or worsen the condition. However, if you experience any difficulty while taking Opzide-MF Tablet 10's, please consult your doctor so that alternative medicine may be prescribed.
In type 1 diabetes, the body does not produce insulin as the islet cells (insulin-producing cells) in the pancreas are destroyed completely. In type 2 diabetes, though islet cells are working, the body does not respond to insulin as the body becomes resistant to insulin.
