Regularly check your blood glucose levels as directed by your doctor. Aim for consistent monitoring to understand how Amaryl affects your sugar control. Frequency depends on your individual needs, but daily or several times a week is common.

Blood Glucose Monitoring and Adjustments

Report any unusual glucose readings to your doctor immediately. Significant fluctuations, either high or low, might require dosage adjustments or other treatment changes. Don’t hesitate to contact your healthcare provider with concerns.

Pay close attention to potential side effects, such as hypoglycemia (low blood sugar). Symptoms include dizziness, sweating, and shakiness. Learn how to treat hypoglycemia promptly, carrying fast-acting glucose sources like glucose tablets. Your doctor can provide specific guidance.

Liver and Kidney Function

Your doctor will likely monitor your liver and kidney function through blood tests before starting and periodically during Amaryl treatment. This helps ensure the medication is not causing any harm. Report any signs of liver or kidney problems, such as unusual fatigue or changes in urination.

Maintain open communication with your doctor about any health changes, including new medications or illnesses. This allows for timely assessment and necessary treatment modifications to prevent potential interactions or complications.
