Asked for male, 64 years old from Mumbai

Is Glycomet 500 S R a good substitute for Pioz 7.5 Mf? As Pioz 7.5 Mf is not available anymore?

It is not a good substitute as piz mf contains two medicines-pioglitazone 7.5 mg and metformin 500 mg while Glycomet contains only one-metformin 500 mg in sustained release form.

Health Query

Sir, I am a diabetic and taking azulix 1mf forte twice in a day. My fbs generally between 120 to 130. But after 2 hrs of lunch it shoots to 210 mg/dl ang falls to 150 in 3 to 3.5 hrs. When I was diagnosed with diabetes my a1c was 11.8 later with azulix 2mf forte it came to 6.7 in 3 months. But changed to azulix 1 mf then a1c changed to 7.7 in 6 months. Now taking 1 mf forte for the last one month. Is it that very bad to have over 200 mg/dl. I am taking ragi in the night and oats in the morning. But taking rice for lunch. I am really worried.

Asked for male, 46 years old from Varanasi

I am a type-2 diabetic 45 years, on medicine since last 10 years, the basic medicine is metformin 500 twice daily. Last year I suffered major weight loss to tune of 10 kg, which when stopped metformin and switched to glimepiride 1 mg twice daily regained to normal wt. (70 kg-5'10" Height). My sugar levels are out of control. The fasting levels are 130-170, and post meal (after 3 hours) counts to 180-250 levels, with the following medications: glimepiride 2 mg + metformin 500 in morning and metformin 500 at Night. I often suffer from diaoherrea. (And we think the continued usage of metformin may be the cause, as when we switched to glimepiride completely without metformin the diaoherrea was controlled.) I go with diabetic diet and regular walk. My recent HB1Ac levels are 7.4% (Test dt: 24.04.18) Please guide me.

Hello, thanks for the query.
I have seen the details given. Usually metformin is very well tolerated. Often seen side effect include gastrointestinal disturbances, which reduce on taking the drug after food. Pain in knee joints is unusual. However, since you have that, one may have to some other options which could include sglt - 2 inhibitors along with insulin. Equally important is to look at your dietary pattern and extent of physical activity. Thanks.
