Can Taking Glimasave M1 Increase My Bilirubin Level?

I am on Glimisave M1 since April 2013. Bilirubin level (total) has increased to 1.9 which I noticed recently. I am a social drinker, drinking frequency once or twice in a month and maximum 180 ml at a time. Can the medicine cause the increased bilirubin?

Regards

Glimisave m1 doesnt cause rise in bilirubin. Please dont stop your antidiabetic medication. However get a detailed liver function test in view of your bilirubin rise. I would also advise to abstain from alcohol.in meantime
