Mr Srinivasan, Thanks for the query.
At your age it is really better if you stop taking Glibenclamide as it has very long duration of action. Because of that it tends to lower the blood glucose for a long time. So chances of hypoglycemia (low blood glucose, < 70 mg/100 ml) is quite often seen more so in persons who are above 60 years. Now a days there are better alternatives available which do give good glucose control plus are not causing hypoglycemia.
However, with regard to changing f...more

According to the treatment you are getting, I can see the effort of your doctor. I think you should consider taking insulin atleast for one time in a day to control it along with your medication. As you have hba1c of 10.8, it's good for your health to start insulin atleast once daily. Pls consult to your doctor about it or you can consult me online m.

Mr. lybrate-user, Thanks for the query.
The glucose levels mentioned are definitely high. It appears that present (new) treatment is not suiting you. Since no details are mentioned in terms of drugs and dosage, it is difficult to comment. If the previous treatment was giving good results with better glucose control, what was the reason for changing? You should tell the doctor that you were better of with earlier treatment and hence, he should revert you to that. Find out what he says. Or els...more

diabetes diet plays a very important role. You need to be very particular about food choices & timings to control blood glucose levels. Even medicines will not work properly unless you are particularly about food choices. I would suggest you to properly follow the do's and don't of diabetes so to control the blood glucose levels.

You should keep checking your blood glucose fasting and 2 hrs post food regularly. You may have developed some mild GI side effecr with your previous medicine which are gone with the new that tou have started. But hypoglycemia is a risk which can be prevented with regular monitoring. For chronic pancreatitis patient with diabetes this combination is okay. But insulin will be better in acute pancreatitis or with increased abdominal pain any time. Keep monitoring.

Since you are overweight, instead of pioglitazone we can start other medication which may help in weight loss.

Hello, thanks for the query.
I have seen the details mentioned. However, there is no mention about actual fasting & after food blood glucose, as well as hba1c%. Without knowing these important facts no comments can be made about the treatment.
Secondly, if one has confirmed diabetes then treatment has to be taken every day. Since one eats every day then drugs also are required to control the glucose rise every day.
Another important aspects is that with a bmi (body mass index) of 39....more

Hi lybrate-user,
fasting sugar 200 is definitely high, but to suggest specific treatment, I need more information like ppbs, hba1c, duration of diabetes, time since this treatment is ongoing. Kindly contact me with this information.
Apart from this, you must follow lifestyle measures for better control of your diabetes, if you are not doing them presently. This includes taking healthy diet and doing regular physical activity for 30-45 minutes like walking, cycling, swimming, aerobics etc...more
