Glyciphage 850Mg Tablet Sr Health Feed

Mr. lybrate-user, Thanks for the query.
Blood glucose level 270 mg (fasting or after food is not mentioned), is high. It means that present treatment is not really helping in controlling the glucose level properly. He does need some additional drugs. Plus there needs to be a close given to diet and extent of exercise being done daily. Thanks.

hi thanks for the query..
both options are good..but glycomet with jalra would be a better option in view of lesser chance of hypoglycemia...

Glycomet only has metformin. No glimepiride. Both the drugs good for diabetes. None of the drug cause kidney problem. In kidney problem we take some special care in prescribing metformin.

It is not a good substitute as piz mf contains two medicines-pioglitazone 7.5 mg and metformin 500 mg while Glycomet contains only one-metformin 500 mg in sustained release form.

Even increasing physical activity would be more beneficial than adding any further drug. Tanks.

Hello, Thanks for the query.
I have seen the information given. HbA1c% is quite good, showing very good glucose control. Fasting glucose should ideally be < 100 mg or closer to 100 mg.
It is invariably dependent on your night time food intake and on overall physical activity.
So reduce fasting, you will have to give a closer look at your dietary intake particularly at dinner time. If you cut down that fasting glucose will come down.
Another important aspect is in relation to y...more
