A non diabetic’s blood sugar level should be between 70 and 140 mg/dL one to two hours after a meal, according to the American Diabetes Association. If it is lower than this, you could have a condition called hypoglycemia, in which blood sugars drop below 70 mg/dL after eating.

The reason is your tablet. Glyson mf. Another reason may be your irregular meal timings. You can be started with metformin 500 twice daily. Please consult your nearby diabetologist doctor as early as possible and do not indulge in self medication.

Hello, Thanks for the query.
Since there is no mention of actual blood glucose levels and HbA1c%, there is no way to know how well is your diabetes controlled. So I can hardly comment. As regards high BP there are multiple drugs available to control it. Your local doctor can give you the best advice. Thanks.
