Hello, thanks for the query.
The tablet mentioned is to be taken for treating diabetes for quite a long time. Because diabetes is going to go away after 16 days. Since no other information is guven like fasting, pp glucose & hba1c%, no further comments can be made. If you have developed diabetes then treatment has to be continued for life time. If you have any questions please come back with all the necessary details. Thanks.

Do kegel exercises-- firstly, find the pelvic floor muscles. You can achieve this by stopping mid-stream two or three times the next time you urinate. The muscles you can feel working during this process are the pelvic floor muscles, and they will be the focus of kegel exercises.
One kegel exercise consists of tightening and holding these muscles for 5 seconds and then releasing them. Try to do between 10 and 20 repetitions each day. This may not be possible when you first start doing the ex...more

Mr. lybrate-user, Thanks for your query.
The drugs mentioned Glimepiride and Voglibose are different in their action.
Metformin is supposed to reduce or delay glucose absorption and hence slows down blood glucose rise after taking food. Plus it also reduces insulin resistance hence helps blood glucose control. There are other beneficial effects like helps slight weight reduction.

lybrate-user, Thanks for the query.
As mentioned your FBG is fine (93 mg), but PP is definitely high. The reason for fasting being low is the Insulin dosage being taken at night. You need to reduce the post lunch glucose level. So you may look at increasing only Glimepiride dosage rather than taking two tablets of double dose of both (glimiperide + Metformin). That may become excess. If you have any specific questions please do come back. You should target PP <100 mg (as is now), PP 150 to 1...more

Mr. lybrate-user Kumar, Thanks for the query.
While prescribing jardiance I am sure doctor must have given you instructions about washing the penis and prepuce cleanly so as to remove any glucose deposition that might occur there. The reason being Jardiance increases glucose excretion through urine. This helps in better blood glucose control and even weight reduction. But if care is not taken, then there is a strong possibility of developing fungal infection of prepuce and tip of penis area....more

Dear sir, rbs 400 is too high. We need your fbs, ppbs and hba1c. Very important thing is that we have to check your retinal changes as well as kidney functions too. You can come to private consultation online and we can start your treatment. Till then make a habit of walking daily for 60 mins, strict diet should be followed.
