Once you achieve a stable blood glucose level, you need to keep taking the medications. Discontinuing diabetes medications will increase blood glucose levels and damage kidneys and nerves at a faster pace. No amount of dietary restriction and/or exercise is sufficient to keep blood glucose level at a stable rate without medication.

gliclazide can be taken twice but only after the advice of your doctor as per need.
choosing one drug over other depends on several factors like how well the kidney is working, cardiac status or compliance. please let the doctor decide between vilda and tenligliptin and you can also discuss the same. for details kindly take online consultation

Gliclazide shd be taken once half an hour before breakfast between vildagliptin and telenegliptin, vildagliptin is better as he had robust safety and efficacy date with it. It shd be taken after meal.

Asked for male, 32 years old from Hyderabad

My father aged 68, some 8 months back was diagnosed for Spine TB and he started on ATT. His Blood urea, BUN is high and so is creatinine 1.7. I consulted general physician and put him on nefrolex for 5 days. However, after taking this medicine he was complaining of back pain, joint pain, fever, mouth rash, loose stool and high glucose reading. Its a month since he has stopped, he is left with pain on the left lowest rib which he feels upon standing up or if that rib is pressed directly. Also doctor asked us to stop Azulix 1 and use Diamicron Mr. As he thinks metformin is not good with Kidney issue. He has no fever, urine is normal, sugar is normal, his eyesight has improved. We have eliminated almost all carbs barring greens, beans, salad and increased protein. What could be the cause of this type of back pain and if it is something to do with gastritis as we gave him darolac for 2 weeks as his stomach pain went off and his back pain also improved a little bit?

For diabetes follow a diet low in carbohydrate, low in fat and high in fibre. Walking for 30 mins a day for at least 5 days in a week is recommended. Follow a stress free life. Try walking for 10-15 min after your meal. If still your pp level remains high than your medication needs to be changed.
