Product Details

Description

Buy Teva-Glyburide Online from Licensed Canadian Pharmacies

Teva-Glyburide is an oral diabetes medicine that contains Glyburide, a second-generation sulfonylurea. It is a class of medications that helps your pancreas release more insulin (it’s the hormone that lowers blood sugar).

This medicine is a prescription-only product that commonly comes in 3 different strengths: 1.25 mg, 2.5 mg, and 5 mg. When your doctor provides you with a prescription, you may buy Teva-Glyburide online from Canada.

In clinical use, glyburide is taken along with diet & exercise to improve blood sugar control in adults with type 2 diabetes, when lifestyle changes alone are not enough. When you take this medicine regularly, it can help lower fasting and after-meal blood sugar.

This action further reduces HbA1c (a lab test that reflects average blood sugar over about three months) and lowers the risk of diabetes-related complications. But, glyburide can cause low blood sugar (hypoglycemia) and is used with special caution in older adults and people with kidney problems.

Uses and Benefits

What Is Teva-Glyburide Used For?

Teva-Glyburide is used to treat:

  • Type 2 diabetes

What Are the Benefits of Teva-Glyburide?

  • When used long-term, it can help lower HbA1c.
  • It can reduce fasting blood sugar and after-meal spikes, which improves overall glucose control.
  • Better blood sugar control lowers the long-term risk of diabetes complications such as eye disease, kidney damage, nerve problems, and cardiovascular issues.
  • This medicine can be used alone or with other non-insulin diabetes medicines when additional glucose-lowering is needed.

Teva-Glyburide Dosage Guide

Dosage of Teva-Glyburide for Type 2 Diabetes in Adults
  • Starting dose: 2.5 to 5 mg once per day, taken with breakfast or the first main meal.
  • Dose adjustments: Dose increases are usually made in 2.5 mg steps, no more often than every 1 to 2 weeks.

  • Maintenance dose: The common range is from 2.5 mg to 10 mg per day, given as a single morning dose or divided into two doses.

Usage Guide

How to Take Teva-Glyburide?

Teva-Glyburide tablets are taken orally on a regular schedule. Follow these instructions to use this medicine correctly:

  • Try to take your dose exactly as prescribed by your health care provider.
  • Take Teva-Glyburide with breakfast or your first substantial meal to minimize the risk of low blood sugar.
  • Swallow the prescribed tablet whole with water.
  • You don’t have to crush it or break it unless your doctor tells you otherwise.
  • Continue following your meal plan and exercise program, because glyburide is meant to work together with healthy lifestyle changes.
  • Discuss any episodes of low blood sugar, new medications, or major changes in diet or activity with your diabetes care team promptly.
How It Works

How Teva-Glyburide Works

Glyburide (the active ingredient in Teva-Glyburide) is a sulfonylurea medicine that lowers blood sugar by helping your pancreas release more insulin. It attaches to a receptor on the beta cells of the pancreas and closes specific potassium channels, which changes the cell’s electrical activity.

This shift opens calcium channels, and this allows calcium to enter the cell and trigger insulin release. With more insulin available, your body can move sugar from the blood into tissues more effectively, but because this depends on functioning beta cells, glyburide tablets are only used for type 2 diabetes, not type 1\.

Side Effects

What Are the Side Effects of Teva-Glyburide?

Common Teva-Glyburide side effects may include:

  • Low blood sugar (hypoglycemia) symptoms such as sweating, shakiness, hunger, blurred vision, headache, or confusion
  • Nausea
  • Stomach upset
  • Heartburn
  • A feeling of fullness
  • Diarrhea
  • Gas
  • Dizziness, especially if meals are skipped
  • Mild weight gain over time as blood sugar improves
  • Headache
  • Fatigue

Serious side effects (rare): Call your provider if you experience any serious symptoms or unusual changes.

  • Severe hypoglycemia with confusion, slurred speech, loss of coordination, seizures, or loss of consciousness
  • Liver problems
  • Serious allergic reactions
  • Blood disorders (low white blood cells, which lead to infections, fever, unusual bruising, or bleeding)
  • Skin reactions
  • Worsening of underlying heart disease (rare)
Warnings

Teva-Glyburide Warnings

Black Box Warning: Glyburide carries a boxed warning, like other sulfonylureas, based on older studies suggesting a possible increased risk of cardiovascular mortality compared with diet alone or insulin therapy. This risk is considered when choosing therapies.

Consider these other warnings for taking Teva-Glyburide safely:

  • Teva-Glyburide is contraindicated in patients:
  • With known hypersensitivity to glyburide, other sulfonylureas, or any tablet component
  • Being treated with bosentan because of an increased risk of liver injury.
  • This medicine must not be used for type 1 diabetes or diabetic ketoacidosis, which require insulin.
  • Alcohol intake can increase hypoglycemia risk and may cause a disulfiram-like reaction (flushing and palpitations) with sulfonylureas in some individuals.
  • Use with caution in older adults or those with kidney, liver, or endocrine disorders, as reduced clearance increases the risk of prolonged hypoglycemia.
Safety Guide

What Precautions Should You Take While Using Teva-Glyburide?

Take these precautions while taking Teva-Glyburide:

  • Learn your personal warning signs of hypoglycemia, and keep a fast-acting source of sugar (like any juice containing glucose or tablets) with you at all times.
  • Check blood sugar as often as your care team advises, especially when doses change, when you are sick, or when your eating pattern changes.
  • Inform every health care provider that you take glyburide so that they can review potential interactions with new prescriptions or OTC (over-the-counter) products.
  • Use extra caution when you’re driving or handling any machinery if your blood sugar has been low or fluctuating.
  • Keep your scheduled follow-ups for A1c monitoring every 3 months and routine kidney and liver tests to ensure glyburide remains safe and effective.
Missed Dose

Teva-Glyburide Missed Dose

Don’t miss a dose of Teva-Glyburide, but if you do, take it as soon as you recall, unless it is almost time for your next scheduled dose. If your next meal is far away, take it with your next meal.

If it is close to the next dose, skip the missed tablet and return to your regular schedule. Do not double up or take extra tablets to “catch up” because this can cause low blood sugar.

Overdose

Teva-Glyburide Overdose

Taking too much of Teva-Glyburide may cause severe hypoglycemia (for long duration), which may be life-threatening. Symptoms may include:

  • Extreme weakness
  • Confusion
  • Tremors
  • Sweating
  • Rapid heartbeat
  • Seizures
  • Loss of consciousness

If you accidentally overdose on Teva-Glyburide, call 911 or the Poison Control Center at their toll-free number 1-800-222-1222.
