Biodib 30mg Tablet Health Feed

You can not call fasting blood sugar 124 in a diabetic patient as hyperglycemia to add more medicine.

Mr. lybrate-user, Thanks for the query
You have mentioned the drugs and dosage being taken, but there us no mention of blood glucose levels and HbA1c%, so I am unable to know whether glucose is well controlled or not.
Another aspect you are taking 30 mg of Pioglitazone, which is the maximum dose recommended. It is better if that is reduced to 15 mg a day. Please let me know the glucose levels and HbA1c% Then only I can comment. Plus I need to know the diet pattern and extent of exercise,...more

Thanks for the query.
HbA1c% 8.7 is high. At your age it should be maintained < 6.8. Apart from that it is important to know current fasting and PP glucose levels. Another important aspect is your weight and BMI. With a BMI of 31.98 kgs /Sq meter, yu are in grade 1 obesity. This needs to be addressed first. Your ideal weight should be 65 kgs, which means there is an excess of 22 kgs.

Mr. lybrate-user, thanks for the query.
As told by your endocrinologist pioglitazone does help insulin action by reducing resistance to its action. The combination has been banned because it is considered as irrational to have certain "fixed dose" combinations. Because it is difficult to make dosage adjustment in asuch a combination.

Your blood sugar is controlled with present medicine hence it should be continured.

What is your weight, bmi and waist circumference? bmi should be 23 kms per sq meter& waist should be below 90 cms. What is activity level? do you walk for over an h every day? if you maintain your weight and waist and exercise level that will help in reduction of sugar. Please remember every food that we eat (carbs) gets converted to glucose. You have to consume prescribed amount food only. Oil intake should be just half kg per month. No deep fried foods.

Hello, Thanks for the query.
I have seen the details given and understand the concern you have. Your father is already on multiple drugs for controlling blood glucose, so there is no need for adding any further medications.
Please understand for a diabetic patient strict diet control is part and parcel of his daily life. If he does not follow that then uncontrolled glucose levels can lead to early setting in of severe long term complications affecting eyes (retina), heart, kidneys and ...more

You do blood test fbs, ppbs then you call me. Take regular freehand exercise like walking and meditate for sometime.

Dear Mr. lybrate-user,
your fasting blood sugar reading and the otherr test reports indicate goo d control of all your problems. I note that your doctor recently added pioz 15 mg may be because hba1c was more than 8. If that is the case, you need to add the drug. The novastat is for high ldl cholesterol and the repace 50 for kidney protection and to keep bp under control. I note that your weight is ok (in fact a little low for your height) pioz will make you gain some weight
