Hello, thanks for the query.
I have seen the details mentioned. Hba1c% of 6.9 % is showing a good control. So the present treatment needs to be continued. If you have any questions please come back with following information: current dosage of all the medications, weight, height, age, extent of daily exercise, dietary pattern and lipid profile as well as bp readings then I will be bale to guide. Thanks.
