The Use of Diabeton MR in Sports

Diabeton MR is the trade name of gliclazide, an active ingredient used for the treatment of type 2 diabetes. In medicine, its sulfonylurea derivative is used to:

• Increase insulin production by the pancreas;
• Increase sensitivity to insulin in adipose and muscle tissues;
• Normalize metabolic processes in liver cells;
• Thinning blood and reducing thrombus formation in microcirculation;
• Act as an antioxidant, increasing cell protection from free radicals.

How Diabeton MR is Used in Bodybuilding

In sports, Diabeton MR’s interest lies in its ability to maintain anabolic processes due to its similarity to the natural hormone insulin. Bodybuilder reviews suggest it’s effective during mass-gaining cycles. The increase in muscle bulk is moderate, achievable in a short intake period.

Due to potential pancreatic strain, limit use to one month, with over a year between cycles. Some use it for longer without major health harm.

In bodybuilding, start with 10-15 mg daily, increasing to 30 mg. Experienced athletes might double dosage. Pancreatic risk arises around 100-120 mg daily.

Similar to insulin, consider medication duration. Consume carb/protein-rich food during gliclazide’s effect.

Benefits of Using Diabeton MR

Positive impact on anabolic cycles, minimal side effects. Avoid if liver/kidney damage, incorrect dosage, or prolonged use. Benefits include:

• Easy acquisition from pharmacies;
• No counterfeits unlike anabolic steroids;
• No need for complex post-cycle therapy.

To prevent hypoglycemia, follow a protein and carbohydrate-rich diet. Achieve results with proper training and diet, avoid combining with other medications.

Overdosage

Exceeding norms may lead to hypoglycemia. Increase sugar with 40% glucose solution. Monitor closely and seek assistance for severe episodes.

Side Effects

Side effects include stomach ache, nausea, vomiting, altered defecation, anemia, allergic reactions, and more. Monitor and seek help if severe.

Storage Conditions

Store at temperature not exceeding 30°C.
