Benefits of Balila Capsule

In Managing Hypoglycemia (low blood sugar)

Balila 25mg Capsule is used to manage low blood sugar levels, called hypoglycemia. This medicine helps to regulate the blood sugar and restores the condition of the patient to normal. However, Balila 25mg Capsule should not be used to treat low blood sugar from poor nutrition/diet (functional hypoglycemia).The effect of this medicine begins within an hour and generally lasts no more than eight hours in the presence of normal kidney (renal) function.

Low blood sugar levels can also be dangerous. Avoid missing a meal, do not exercise too much, and eat enough food to prevent very low blood sugar levels. This will ensure that you do not go into a state of severe hypoglycemia and improves your quality of life.

How to use Balila Capsule

Take this medicine in the dose and duration as advised by your doctor. Balila 25mg Capsule may be taken with or without food, but it is better to take it at a fixed time.

How Balila Capsule works

Balila 25mg 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.
