Glimer 1 MG Tablet Health Feed

Instead of cetapin take Galvusmet 1000 twice a day after meals. Continue glimer 2 twice a day before meals. Repeat test after one month.

Its not very safe for lactating mother, better to take ayurvedic drug like hyponid from charak pharma.

Mr. lybrate-user, Thanks for the query.
It appears you are on a fairly high dose of Glimepiride. Metformin (2000 mg) is also fairly high. Usually Glimepiride should not be used more than 4 mg in a day. Even though recommended upper limit is 8 mg, conventionally using more than 4 mg is not advised. Since there is no mention of actual glucose levels (fasting, PP and HbA1c%), there is no way to know how good is the control.

You can add galvus to your current medicines instead of switching if your liver n kidney function test are normal and if you never had pancreatitis. Monitor your sugar levels every week to 10 days to see response.

Dear lybrate-user as I can see your blood sugars are very much under control as per your recent reports, I suggest you to watch for low blood sugars symptoms (hypoglycemia). Till then you can continue the same regime #besafe.

The dosage of various medicines for glucose control can be adjusted on the basis of patients needs, doctor's advise and also based on dietary intake. Usually Glimepiride is either given once a day or twice in some cases. Metformin can be given 3 times a day again depending upon the need. Voglibose is usually recommended with each meal, that is three times a day. As it is mainly for reducing post food glucose rise. Thanks.
