Starlix Side Effects
In clinical trials, approximately 2400 patients with Type 2 diabetes were treated with Starlix (nateglinide). Of these, approximately 1200 patients were treated for 6 months or longer and approximately 190 patients for one year or longer.
Hypoglycemia was relatively uncommon in all treatment arms of the clinical trials. Only 0.3% of Starlix patients discontinued due to hypoglycemia. Gastrointestinal symptoms, especially diarrhea and nausea, were no more common in patients using the combination of Starlix and metformin than in patients receiving metformin alone. The following side effects occurred more frequently in Starlix patients than placebo patients in controlled clinical trials.
- Upper Respiratory Infection
- Back Pain
- Flu Symptoms
- Dizziness
- Arthropathy
- Diarrhea
- Accidental Trauma

As with any medication, you may experience additional unreported Starlix side effects.
