StayHappi Glimepiride 3mg Tablet itself does not cause sleepiness. However, it may contribute to tiredness, and low blood sugar can be associated with drowsiness. It's important to take medication at the time recommended by your doctor to minimize these side effects.
Can I take StayHappi Glimepiride 3mg Tablet on an empty stomach?
No. Taking StayHappi Glimepiride 3mg Tablet on an empty stomach can cause your blood sugar levels to become too low. Low blood sugar can cause dizziness, shaking, anxiety, irritability, a fast heartbeat, and confusion. Therefore, you should always take the medicine with breakfast or the first meal of the day.
Can people with diabetes have proteins?
Yes, people with diabetes must include proteins along with other essential nutrients in their daily diet. Proteins are one of the major energy providers among all essential nutrients. Besides, being the building blocks of the human body, proteins break down into glucose to release energy. Unlike carbohydrates, the metabolism of proteins into glucose is much slower. Thus, the release of energy usually takes a few hours after consumption. Therefore, the spike in blood sugar levels might occur after a few hours when you are on a high-protein diet.
Can diabetes be cured?
There is no known cure for type 2 diabetes yet. However, with lifestyle changes, proper medications and regular monitoring by healthcare professionals, one can effectively manage their condition and live a healthy life.
