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.

You are suffering this because diabetes has taken a toll on your immunity. You need to strengthen your immunity and have better control over blood sugar. Ayurvedic tablets can do that without any side effects. Kindly let me know your age, height and weight so as to arrive at perfect prescription. Regards Dr. Omkar shahapurkar

Hello, thanks for the query.
I have seen the details mentioned. Your hba1c% is high, which means present treatment is not helping enough. Ideally in a well controlled diabetes patient's fbg should be < 100 mg or closer to 100 mg, pp 150 to 160 mg & hba1c% < 6.5%.
So there is a need to look at overall treatment that includes your dietary pattern, extent of daily exercise, present medication and need to upgrade, lipid profile, serum creatinine and urea (since age is not mentioned)

M lybrate-user, thanks for the additional query.
However, you seem to have not read the details that I had asked. With pp up to 190 mg, will normally not lead to such high hba1c% as it is the average level of fbg & pp over 24 hours. Plus there is no mention of dietary pattern, extent of exercise and lipid profile and age. It is essential to know all thedetails to gve any speidic advise. Howevr, if you have decided to take certain drugs on your own, you can go ahead. In this (open questions) ...more

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

Hello, thanks for the query.
I have seen the details. Your fasting & pp glucose levels are too high. In fact you need a much stronger correction. More drugs are needed. What is the hba1c%? Ideally in a well controlled person fasting should be < 100 mg or closer to 100 mg, pp 150 to 170 mg & hba1c% <6.8% (not mentioned). Therefore, your doctor has suggested the newer tratment. Metformin dosage is up to 2500 mg per day. Looking at your age (53 years), there is a greater need for achieving a mu...more
