Hello
Welcome to HCM.
Tablet nexito and citalopram usually do not increase blood sugar levels.
The blood sugar levels are uncontrolled even after insulin. I think the dose of insulin needs to be increased. Also anti-diabetic drugs like metformin, pioglitazone or vildagliptin can be tried. Please consult your physician for this.
Hope this helps.
Thanks
