Description
Scicon MR 30mg – Gliclazide Modified-Release Tablets for Type 2 Diabetes
This medicine requires a valid prescription from a licensed physician.
Scicon MR 30mg is a prescription modified-release (MR) tablet containing Gliclazide 30mg, manufactured by Scilife. Gliclazide belongs to the sulfonylurea class of oral antidiabetic medicines. It works by stimulating the pancreas to secrete more insulin, thereby lowering blood glucose levels in adults with type 2 diabetes mellitus.
The modified-release formulation allows gradual, controlled release of gliclazide throughout the day, supporting stable glycaemic control and reducing the risk of hypoglycaemia compared to immediate-release formulations. Scicon MR 30mg is prescribed when blood sugar management through diet and lifestyle changes alone is insufficient.
Regular use as directed by your physician, alongside adherence to a prescribed diet and exercise programme, helps improve long-term glycaemic outcomes and reduces the risk of diabetes-related complications.

FAQs
What is Scicon MR 30mg used for?
Scicon MR 30mg contains Gliclazide 30mg and is prescribed for the management of blood sugar levels in adults with type 2 diabetes mellitus when diet and lifestyle alone are insufficient.
Do I need a prescription for Scicon MR 30mg?
Yes. Scicon MR 30mg is a prescription-only medication. A valid prescription from a licensed physician is required before dispensing.
Why must I swallow the tablet whole and not crush it?
Scicon MR is a modified-release formulation. Crushing or chewing the tablet destroys the controlled-release mechanism, causing too much gliclazide to be released at once and increasing the risk of hypoglycaemia.
