Gliclazide is an oral antihyperglycemic agent which is used for the treatment of non-insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus (NIDDM). Gliclazide belongs to the sulfonylurea class of insulin secretagogues, which act by stimulating β cells of the pancreas to release insulin molecules. Gliclazide is extensively metabolized by the liver; its metabolites are excreted in both urine (60-70%) and feces (10-20%).
