Mr Vasudev, Thanks for the query.
You are multiple drugs for controlling blood glucose. The reason these drugs have been prescribed must be improperly controlled blood glucose. Plus you are also on a drug combination to reduce LDL & TGL. There is nothing like high or low dose. Drugs are given based on the need. Since there is no mention of either fasting, PP glucose HbA1c% or lipid profile, it is difficult to know how good the control is. Thanks.

Hello, Thanks for the query.
It is very difficult to understand what you mean by"Glimepiride & Metformin are not working". As no details about blood glucose (fasting & PP levels) HbA1c% are given. So my suggestion is please come back with all the following details : Current fasting, Pp glucose levels, HbA1c%, weight, height, extent of daily exercise, diet pattern, lipid profile and BP readings. After going through those details I will be able to guide. Thanks.
