About Reclide-XR 60 Tablet

Reclide-XR 60 Tablet is used to treat type 2 diabetes mellitus when diet and exercise alone cannot control blood sugar levels. Type 2 diabetes is a chronic or lifelong disorder that affects the way our body processes glucose.

In some cases, you may experience certain common side effects, such as stomach ache or indigestion, feeling sick (nausea), vomiting, and constipation.
