lybrate-user, thanks for the query.

Ideally fasting glucose should be < 100 mg, PP 160 to 70 mg & HbA1c% <7.

Hello, Thanks for the query.
Since your glucose is quite well controlled and HbA1c% is 5.9 %, I do not see the reason for changing the treatment. In fact if diet is controlled by reducing a bit of carb intake, you will be able to achieve still better control. Even increasing physical activity would be more beneficial than adding any further drug. Tanks.
