Presentation

Capsules 10, 15 mg. 10 capsules in a blister of aluminum foil and PVC/PVDC film; 1, 3, 6, 9 or 12 blisters with a patient leaflet in a carton pack .

Therapeutic indications

•  alimentary obesity with body mass index (BMI) of 30 kg/m2 or more;
•  alimentary obesity with body mass index (BMI) of 27 kg/m2 or more combined with type 2 diabetes or dyslipoproteinemia.

 

Route of administration

Goldline is administered orally once a day. The dose is defined individually depending on tolerance and clinical efficacy. The initial recommended dose is 10 mg, in case of poor tolerance administration of 5 mg is possible. Capsules should be taken in the morning without chewing, with sufficient amount of liquid (glass of water). The product can be taken both on an empty stomach and combined with a meal. If during 4 weeks from the start of treatment a 5% or more decrease in body weight was not achieved, the dose should be increased to 15 mg per day.
For patients that do not respond well to the therapy, i.e. those whose body weight loss did not reach 5% of the initial level in 3 months, Goldline therapy should not last longer than 3 months. The treatment should not be continued where in further therapy after the achieved body weight loss the patient gains 3 kg or more again. The duration of treatment should not exceed 2 years because there is no efficiency and safety data for longer periods of sibutramine administration.
The Goldline therapy should be combined with diet and exercise under supervision of a physician having practical experience in obesity treatment.

Therapeutic indications

Treatment of type 2 diabetes mellitus, particularly in obese patients, when dietary management and exercise alone is not effective:
•    in adults as monotherapy or in combination with other oral hypoglycemic agents or with insulin;
•    in children over 10 years old as a monotherapy or in combination with insulin.
Prevention of type 2 diabetes in patients with prediabetes with additional risk factors for developing type 2 diabetes when lifestyle changes did not result in adequate glycemic control.

 

Route of administration

Taken orally.
Adults:
Monotherapy and combination with other oral hypoglycemic agents for type 2 diabetes:
•    The ordinary initial dose is 500mg or 850mg taken twice or three times a day after or during meals.
•   The dose should be adjusted every 10-15 days basing on blood glucose concentration control. Gastrointestinal side effects can be reduced if the dose is increased slowly.
•    The maintenance daily dose is generally 1500-2000 mg. Gastrointestinal side effects can be reduced if the daily dose is divided into 2-3 doses. The maximum daily dose is 3000 mg divided into 3 doses.
•    Those who receive metformin doses of 2000-3000 mg can be switched to Metformin 1000 mg. The maximum recommended daily dose is 3000 mg divided into 3 doses.
In case of switch from another hypoglycemic agent the treatment should be stopped and Metformin administration should be started in the dose specified above.
Combination with insulin: for better control of blood glucose concentrations, for patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus metformin and insulin can be used as combined therapy. The ordinary initial dose of Metformin is 500 mg or 850 mg 2-3 times a day, while the dose of insulin is selected based on the blood glucose concentration.
Pediatric use: in children over 10 years old Metformin can be used both as monotherapy and combined with insulin. The ordinary initial dose is 500mg or 850mg once a day after or during meal. In
10-15 days the dose should be adjusted based in blood glucose concentrations. The maximum daily dose is 2000 mg divided into 2-3 doses.
Monotherapy of type 2 diabetes mellitus: the ordinary daily dose is 1000-1700 mg divided in 2 doses after or during meals.
Regular monitoring of glycaemic control is recommended in order to evaluate the need for further therapy.
Patients with Renal Impairment: metformin can be used in patients with moderate renal failure (creatinine clearance 45-59 ml/min) only in the absence of conditions that may increase the risk of lactic acidosis.
In patients with creatinine clearance of 45-59 ml/min, the initial dose is 500 mg or 850 mg once a day. The maximum daily dose is 1000 mg divided into
2 doses.
Renal function should be carefully monitored (every 3-6 months).
If creatinine clearance is below 45 ml/min, administration of the product should be stopped immediately.
Elderly patients: due to potential for decreased renal function, the dose of metformin should be selected under regular monitoring of renal function (creatinine blood concentration should be controlled at least 2-4 times a year).
Duration of treatment: Metformin should be taken daily, without interruption. If treatment is discontinued, the patient should inform the doctor.

Therapeutic indications

Treatment of type 2 diabetes mellitus in adults, particularly in obese patients, when dietary management and exercise alone is not effective:
•    as monotherapy;
•   in combination with other oral hypoglycemic agents or with insulin.

 

Route of administration

Metformin MB is taken orally. Tablets must be swallowed whole and not chewed with sufficient amount of liquid, once a day with the evening meal.
The dose of Metformin MB is selected by the physician individually for each patient based on the results of blood glucose concentration control.
Monotherapy and combination with other oral hypoglycemic agents
•    For patient who did not receive metformin the recommended initial dose of Metformin MB is 500 mg, 750 mg or 850 mg once a day during the evening meal.
•   The dose should be adjusted every 10-15 days basing on blood glucose concentration control. Gastrointestinal side effects can be reduced if the dose is increased slowly.
•     For patient who previously received metformin therapy the initial dose of Metformin MB should be equivalent to the daily dose of ordinary-release tablets.
•    For patients receiving metformin in the form of ordinary-release tablets in doses above 2000 mg switching to Metformin MB is not recommended.
In case of switch from another hypoglycemic agent the treatment should be stopped. Metformin dose selection is started from Metformin MB 500 mg, 750 mg or 850 mg with possible subsequent switch to Metformin MB 1000 mg.
Combination with insulin
For better control of blood glucose concentrations, metformin and insulin can be used as combined therapy. The ordinary initial dose of Metformin MB is one tablet 500 mg, 750 mg and 850 mg once a day during evening meal, while the dose of insulin is selected based on the blood glucose concentration. Further, the switch to Metformin MB 1000 mg is possible.

  • 4 tablets 500 mg per day (2000 mg);
  • 2 tablets 750 mg per day (1500 mg);
  • 2 tablets 850 mg per day (1700 mg);
  • 2 tablets 1000 mg per day (2000 mg);

If adequate glycemic control is not achieved, the dose of Metformin MB can be increased to the maximum daily dose.
Gastrointestinal side effects can be reduced if the daily dose is split into 2 doses.
If adequate blood glucose control is not achieved with the maximum recommended dose taken once a day during the evening meal the maximum daily dose can be split into 2 doses:

  • 2 tablets during the morning meal and 2 tablets during the evening meal for a dosage of 500 mg;
  • 1 tablet during the morning meal and 1 tablet during the evening meal for a dosage of 1000 mg;

If adequate blood glucose control is not achieved with the maximum recommended doses of metformin in the form of extended-release tablets, switching to metformin in the form of ordinary-release tablets for the maximum daily dose of 3000 mg can be considered.
Patients with renal impairment
Metformin can be used in patients with moderate renal failure (creatinine clearance 45-59 ml/min) only in the absence of conditions that may increase the risk of lactic acidosis. The initial dose is 500 mg, 750 mg or 850 mg once daily. The maximum daily dose is 1000 mg. Renal function should be carefully monitored every 3-6 months. If creatinine clearance is below 45 ml/min, administration of the product should be stopped immediately (see section ‘Contraindications’).
Geriatric patients
Metformin doses for elderly patients are adjusted on the basis of renal function assessment which should be regularly monitored at least twice a year (see section ‘Warnings and Precautions’).
Duration of treatment
Metformin MB should be taken daily, without interruption. If treatment is discontinued, the patient should inform the doctor.
Missed dose
If a dose is missed, the patient should take the next dose at the usual time. A double dose of Metformin MB should not be taken.
