Dear doctor sohel, hi! welcome to HCM. A fasting blood glucose of 10 and a random glucose of 14 mmol is definitely high for your age. Amaryl 1 mg is a very low dose for you. you must change it to glimeperide 2mg plus metformin 500 mg combination and make it twice a day , before breakfast and before dinner, then recheck your values after 15 days and let me know. regards!
