Suggest Medication When Having High Blood Sugar Levels
I am taking Glimmy M2 and Volix 0.3 two doses each after breakfast and dinner. My blood sugar level are FBS - 170 and PPBS - 300. Please suggest that whether this is right medication or not. I have recently started Glimmy M2 in place of Janumet. Please advise it is right medicine and I am taking it after meal is ok...
Glimmy m2 and volix .3 are reasonably good drugs for Diabetes type-2 Take Glimmy m2 after food while Volix just before food. There was no need to stop Janumet as it acts by different mechanism on Diabetes. About the control of Diabetes you need to have good diet plan with walking 45min/day along with these medicines.Doing all these measures; if your sugars remain high than go for HbA1c test which shows long term control of Diabetes. If so , you have following options (1) Adding Pioglitazone drug 15 mg/day (2)Adding Dapaglifozin10 mg/day (3)If Hba1c is pretty high above 9 ,adding night time Basal Insulin Injection like Lantus is advisable. You need good monitoring and doctors advice continously.
