Mr Tanmay Ghosh, Thanks for the query.
Your fasting blood glucose level has shown good reduction (from 280 mg to 130 mg). Ideally FBG should be < 100 mg. You can achieve the same by continuing present treatment plus a stricter diet control and exercise.

There has some hue n cry about pioglitazone two years back but that is politics between pharma companies. MOREOVER Bladder cancer risk is with high dose that is 30 mg or above but it's benefits overweigh risk. In India Doctors are using this salt for 15 years.Nobody has seen any case of bladder cancer. On the contrary cancer is more seen in people who are not diabetics and aren't using pioglitazone. So rest assured you are on right track.Good luck.
