Brief Answer:
Take the tablet just before or along with meals.
Detailed Answer:
Hi Sir, Gone through your query and understood your concerns.
The fasting sugar levels are absolutely fine. Even the postprandial level is not so high. Nothing to worry too much.
The only change I advice is, take the tablet just before eating, i.e, about 1 minute before eating or along with meals (just before eating either break fast or dinner). This would give a probable controlled Post Prandial Sugar levels. Follow this for about a week and check PP sugar levels again.
Thank you Sir.
