Is Glycomet SR A Good Medicine To Manage Type 2 Diabetes?
Question: Dear doctor , I am 75 year old male.i had type 2 diabetes since 2012.eversince I am taking glycomet in different strengths but now since 3 years I am taking glycomet 500mg twice. Over the period, I lost fat and muscle and became lean. So I went to my doc with fasting 102 and post lunch 120 levels. He has suggested me to stop taking glycomet 500 mg twice, instead asked me to take either glycomet SR 500 or plain glycomet 500 only once in the morning.So can I take glycomet 500 mg SR after lunch or after breakfast. I take only 3 idlis in the moning and moderate quantity of southindian food in the afternoon. Also please advise me does glycomet 500 mg sr is a good medicine? Which one do i have to prefer? kindly advise
