Istavel 50Mg Tablet Health Feed

Dear lybrate-user kumar,
I would prefer that first you check again your medicine properly. Sitagliptin is not available in 20 mg. And more over I can see glycomet gp1, glyconorm g1, tetagliptin* (mostly teneligliptin) in your details.
And if you are checking your sugar levels with glucometer at home, then I would suggest you check once from laboratory and repeat hba1c also from good laboratory.
Without any clear medical history it will be premature to comment regarding to your curren...more

Hello, thanks for the query.
However, the information given is too scanty to give any suggestion or advice. Please inform following details if you want appropriate advice: fasting, pp (after 2 hours), hba1c%, dietary pattern, extent of daily exercise, bp readings and lipid profile. With a random reading there is no way to give any suggestion. Thanks.

What is more important is to have a fair control ( avoid trying to get perfect control ). The body keeps changing and adjusting itself. Give sufficient time for the body to heal naturally. The stress ( anticipation ) can also contribute to many minor problems. Learn to relax by doing something creative ( or learn Yoga and pranayam/ meditation ).

You are diabetic since 8 years and you are only on metformin total 1500 mg per day. It's time to increase medication. I advice you should do hba1c test to look for your last three months average. And increase 500 mg metformin post dinner and add 50 mg sitagliptin (januvia/zita) bbf so that will take care of post prandial high sugars.

Dear lybrate-user,
your glucometer readings are reasonable for home monitoring purposes and I find that your sugars are under very good control. If possible (i know the covid situation in delhi is bad) get a lab to check your hba1c and if that is < 7, you need not have any anxiety
I suggest home monitoring as follows. Fasting and pp on wednesday and 2 hour after lunch and 2 hours after dinner on sunday and maintain a record. Targets for you would be fasting 80-110 and all post meal value...more

Your blood sugar is not controlled. Need to increase the medicines, discuss with your treating physician.

Don't be panic your fasting is lilbit high just do exercise and follow diet instruction and please change your glucometer accu check.

To keep your blood sugar levels normal along with your medicines a proper diet plan and daily walking will help to achieve normal levels.

No I think you shud first try with diet and changing lifestyle and a cup of diabeid tea. To know the details pls do visit clinic or consult privately.

Mr. lybrate-user, Thanks for the query.
The reason why blood glucose is not in control can be due to 1) Dietary intake is not as required or it is higher than recommended 2) No or limited exercise which does not burn body's glucose and does not help insulin action 3) Medicine taken may not be adequate. So one has to look at all of these causes and then decide. Thanks.
