During initial period of diagnosis, insulin helps to bring down the sugar rapidly and to reduce your problems fast. Later the insulin can be switched to oral tablets. Now the usage of tablets will be less if you can stick to your diet and exercise.

Dear lybrate-user I can understand your situation 4 times a prick will be very painful, I really need few more blood sugars levels so that I can actually help you. And keeping your age and long standing diabetes we do have better insulin which will help reduce blood sugars, with no hypoglycemia.

Hello, Thanks for the query.
I have seen the details given. With HbA1c% 9.4 % it is clear that your blood glucose is not at all well controlled. Ideally in a well controlled person fasting glucose should be < 100 mg or closer t 100 mg, PP 150 to 180 mg & HbA1c% < 7%.
It means there is a need to give a closer look at your diet and exercise. Because you are already on quite a few drugs including Insulin. There is a need to restrict the dietary intake and also increase extent of daily ex...more

In t2 dm there is insulin resistance but there are no antibodies against it. Insulin resistance can be reduced by maintaining near normal body weight and a bmi of 23kg/m2. Exercising for more than 1 h a day is a good method of improving insulin resistance. Drugs like metformin and pioglitazone also help in reducing the resistance.

Hello, Thanks for the query As you are on certain drugs your body gets adapted to those compounds. Therefore, some times the change in compound between similar drugs may nt give desired results. Trigenta is Linagliptin and Januvita is Sitagliptin, even though both have similar action, dosage is different. So there is a possibilty of different response. Results may improve over a period. You might ask your physician about it. There are still better options for stricter control like GLP! analogues...more

Dear Lybrate user it is good to see such a good control with a1c of 6.6. First of pls observe if you have got any low sugars as 67 suggests that you are having low sugars.
