Hi,I am Dr. Amitkumar Sharma (Internal Medicine Specialist). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
I am a diabetic since 2001. I used Diaonil + Metformin for morning and evening. But since last two months, my weight reduced from 64 Kg to 60 Kgs. However last 20 years my wieght is to 64-65 Kgs only. Could you please help me to use Glycomet instead of above tablets.

Hi Thanks for posting your query.
First of all let me tell you glycomet is same as metformin. I need to know the dose of daonil and metformin and your blood sugar levels before changing to only glycomet. But i dont think your weight loss is due to daonil . Infact it causes weight gain . If that is the only reason you want to change then i don't recommend it.
