[QUOTE="ert, post: 2080087, member: 504712"] Here's an NHS article on gliclaride: [URL]https://www.nhs.uk/medicines/gliclazide/[/URL] which would support your theory. 'This medicine is not used to treat [URL='https://www.nhs.uk/Conditions/Diabetes-type1/']type 1 diabetes[/URL] (when your body does not produce insulin).' I believe it's not used to treat type 1's because Sulphonylureas, which includes gliclazide, would stimulate your already exhausted pancreas with its few remaining beta cells (which gave you a type 1 diagnosis.) It would kill off what little insulin production you had left almost immediately. [/QUOTE]
