Mr T V Ashok, Thanks for the query.
For a person with pre-diabetes there is no need for any medication to control blood glucose. Only lifestyle modification and diet changes are sufficient to prevent progression to diabetes.
The very fact that you are on oral antidiabetic drugs that too two different combinations, means you have diabetes. Since there are no levels mentioned or HbA1c%, there is no way to find out what is the condition. Thanks.

Hello, thanks for the query.
I have seen the details mentioned. Madam for a person with 85 years of age, glimiperide is not suitable. Other drugs can be given provided his kidney functions are good. That can be seen by serum creatinine and urea levels. So please check those. Because if egfr (glomerular filtration rate) is < 45 ml/minute then then meformin should not be started particularly at that age. So first please check all those levels and inform the same or consult a physician there. I...more
