Jalra 100Mg Tablet Health Feed

Dear lybrate-user,
for your height the correct weight would be about 57-60 kg. You stay on your current medications and change the diet as follows, monitor sugars and get back to us.

Better take them exactly written in the prescription given by the specialist.
These medicines are very dangerous and never experiment with them without knowledge.
Rest is your wish.

After taking Jalra, the sugar levels have improved quite substantially and this shows that the medicine has suited the patient well. The dose of medicine and choice of medicines are always based on the current conditions of the patients. As such, predictability of how long a medicine would be given to a particular patient is highly dependant on the patient's condition and not on the decision of the doctor!

Bula Dutta ji, Thanks for the query.
I have read the details given. The fasting glucose & HbA1c% are quite high. Therefore, Insulin might have been advised. Plus already there are multiple oral drugs like Glimiperide, Metformin, Acarbose, Vildagliptin & Pioglitazone. WHich means the whole oral range is there. So to attain desired control no further oral drug can really be added. Another important aspect is there is a need to look at her daily dietary intake & extent of exercise to see if a...more

Hello, Thanks for the query. In diabetes when required control is not achieved with single drug, multiple drugs are used. In T2 diabetes the beta cell mass is already down to 50 % by the time diagnosis is made. Then if severe hyperglycemia is present then there's further damage to remaining beta cells. In such situations Insulin injections are required along with oral anti- diabetic drugs. Thus the reason for using more drugs is to achieve better glucose control. Thanks.

Hi Sir/Mam, Thanks for your query. Tab Tryglinace you have to take half an hour before breakfast.
Tab Jalra m you can take after your lunch and after dinner.
To talk me in detail you can call me.

if your pp sugar level is 300 mg/100 ml, then diabetes is not in control. You need to add some more drugs with the advise from your doctor. What is the hba1c%, is it below 7%? also how active you are, because exercise ad weight reduction helps in better control of blood sugar.

Sitagliptin and metformin is a good combination which you are on. It does not cause hypoglycemia in monotherapy and helps to preserve beta cells. In diet avoid high carbs and high glycemic load food avoid mango chickoo grapes banana custord apple.
Avoid cashew kismis dates
avoid fruit juices.
Avoid extra salt and oil
regular daily 40 min walk.

Hello, Thanks for the query.
I have seen the detail and following are my observations : Both fasting & PP glucose are very high. Which shows that present treatment is not adequate. Ideally in a well controlled diabetic person fasting glucose should be < 100 mg or closer to 100 mg, PP 150 to 170 mg & HbA1c% < 6.8%. There is no mention of HbA1c%, which gives a comparatively clearer picture of long term control.
Therefore, there is a need to upgrade the current treatment and also loo...more
