Balila Capsule belongs to a group of medicines called thiazides. It works by preventing insulin release from the pancreas, helping to return the blood sugar to normal levels.

Balila Capsule is used to treat a long-term condition called chronic hypoglycemia (low blood sugar level). Before taking Balila Capsule, tell your doctor if you have heart disease, high blood pressure, kidney problem, or gout (pain and swelling in the toe joints). Keep taking this medicine until your doctor tells you otherwise. Treatment with Balila Capsule is usually long-term. Nausea usually only lasts for the first couple of weeks of treatment. Stick to a simple well-balanced diet of non-spicy foods.
