    What is CYCLOSET?

    CYCLOSET (SY-klo-set) is a once-daily prescription medicine that may help lower blood sugar levels in adults with type 2 diabetes, when used with a healthy diet and exercise. It may help you reach the goals you set with your doctor.

    Your doctor may prescribe CYCLOSET as an important part of your care. To get the best possible results, your doctor may combine it with other medications.

    CYCLOSET has a unique way of helping control blood sugar

    CYCLOSET works in the brain to help treat insulin resistance, a main problem in type 2 diabetes. Insulin is the hormone your body produces to help change blood sugar into energy.

    By unlocking your potential to use insulin more effectively, CYCLOSET helps lower your blood sugar after meals.

    How does CYCLOSET work?

    CYCLOSET helps boost dopamine activity in the brain. In people with type 2 diabetes, dopamine activity in the brain is believed to be too low in the morning.

    More normal dopamine levels in the brain may help your body more effectively use insulin to turn glucose in the blood into energy to be used immediately or stored in the body for later use.

    In clinical trials, CYCLOSET taken daily in the morning has been shown to lower blood sugar levels after each meal of the day. Over time, this may help you reach your A1c goal.
