Has this been prescribed for you, @PatsyB? I see from your profile you have a lot of other medications. So it is always wise to seek advice from GP or pharmacist if taking supplements to what is already prescribed.

Contacting the supplier of medicine, that hasn’t been prescribed is unliklely to get you an unbiased response.

There are two things called Diabeton (/Diabetone), a quick google showed me... One is a supplement with vitamins which would be available over the counter, the other is a brandname for gliclazide and thus not a supplement but a medication requiring a doc's signature... Very strange that two completely different things can have such similar names! Hope this helps...

It emphasises, for me, the importance of knowing exactly what is in any supplements, especially when already on prescribed medication.

An AI review - Check which one you are taking

"Diabeton" can refer to two distinct products: a vitamin and mineral supplement called Diabetone Original by Vitabiotics, and a medication called Diabeton MR (gliclazide) used to treat type 2 diabetes. Diabetone Original is a dietary supplement formulated with 21 nutrients, including chromium, to help maintain normal blood glucose levels. Diabeton MR, on the other hand, is a sulfonylurea drug that helps lower blood sugar in people with type 2 diabetes.
