Hello, thanks for the query.
Both the products are same. The er refers to extended release, which means the drug is released slowly over 12 hours in the gut. That helps maintain a longer therapeutic level. It is beneficial more so if a person has any side effects like gastrointestinal disturbances if plain metformin is taken. Both are fine. Thanks.

Nice to see your blood sugars are well controlled. You need not increase the dose, as it can lead to hypoglycemia which can be very dangerous at times
unfortunately diabetes is a progressive disease and over a period of time you may have to increase the dosages as insulin secretion declines and blood sugar starts increasing.

Dear khushiram
the problem is that, we try to find simple solutions for complex problems. Sexual health is not that easy to treat. One size does not fit all.

Mr. lybrate-user, Thanks for the query.
I have gone through the details given and notice that you do have multiple issues. In addition your BMI is 29 kgs/Sq Meter, which is very close to grade 1 obesity. This itself is a major contributor for improper control of diabetes and high BP. Plus it is possible that due uncontrolled hypothyroidism there is excess weight gain. Your ideal weight should be around 59 kgs, as against that you are now 79 kgs (20 kgs excess).
