Dose adjustment needed. Insulin shd be given 2/3rd in the morning while I was remaining 1/3rd in the evening. That's the correct pattern. Cetapin is metformin only which is already there on amaryl m. You shd rather have medicine of another group. Call me if needed for proper treatment. Regards.

If so then there is a need to up grade the treatment. So contact your doctor and get it up graded. If you are looking for online help, then all the necessary details like current fasting, pp glucose levels, hba1c%, weight, height, diet pattern, extent of daily exercise, serum creatinine, ure...more
