Gliclazide
A second-generation sulfonylurea that prompts the pancreas to release insulin, used for type 2 diabetes. Patented in 1966, it has been in use since 1972. This family brings together the active ingredient, pharmacopoeial impurities, labelled standards, nitrosamines and other impurities.
Did you know?It binds selectively to SUR1 receptors on the beta cells of the pancreas, not to the SUR2A receptors of the heart: it closes potassium channels, and the calcium that then enters the cell triggers insulin release.
