Mr. lybrate-user, thanks for the query.

Hello, Thanks for the query.
Tablets with either XL or SR mean the drug is released slowly over period of 12 hours or longer. Other tablets have normal releasing compound where action may last for 6 to 8 hours or longer depending upon type of the compound and its pharmacokinetic characteristics. . Thanks

Hello, Thanks for the query.
In patients with diabetes, uncontrolled high glucose levels are the main or the only reason for causing damage to kidney and leading to long term problem of failure. The antidiabetic drugs used (oral) are quite safe. There are patients on oral drugs for over 50 years without any damage to kidney. But if glucose levels are not well controlled that is sure to damage kidney filtration membrane and lead to end stage kidney failure. Thanks.
