Mr. lybrate-user, Thanks for the query
You have mentioned the drugs and dosage being taken, but there us no mention of blood glucose levels and HbA1c%, so I am unable to know whether glucose is well controlled or not.
Another aspect you are taking 30 mg of Pioglitazone, which is the maximum dose recommended. It is better if that is reduced to 15 mg a day. Please let me know the glucose levels and HbA1c% Then only I can comment. Plus I need to know the diet pattern and extent of exercise,...more

Thanks for the query.
HbA1c% 8.7 is high. At your age it should be maintained < 6.8. Apart from that it is important to know current fasting and PP glucose levels. Another important aspect is your weight and BMI. With a BMI of 31.98 kgs /Sq meter, yu are in grade 1 obesity. This needs to be addressed first. Your ideal weight should be 65 kgs, which means there is an excess of 22 kgs. Weight reduction will help in better control of blood glucose. In this communication we can only give general...more

I have been taking glitaris m7. 5/500 one tablet after dinner for sugar control for more than 10 years. This has been banned again in india. My endocrinologist is of the opinion that I should not stop pioglitazone (the reason, it facilitates utilization of insulin in body cells). Secondly, I am taking it in low intensity (7.5 mg). My questions are the following. 1. Does it have harmful effect? 2. Is the side effect related to quantity of pioglitazone one is taking? Meaning, is to safe to take it in low amount as in my case? 3. Though this tablet is banned, glitaris 7.5 mg is available in market (exclusive pioglitazone). Can I take this with one additional tablet glycomet 500 (metformin)? If yes, 4. If combination tablet glitaris m7. 5/500 is unsafe (because it is banned) then how the same in separate form, glitaris 7.5 + glycomet 500, can be safe?

Mr. lybrate-user, thanks for the query.
As told by your endocrinologist pioglitazone does help insulin action by reducing resistance to its action. The combination has been banned because it is considered as irrational to have certain "fixed dose" combinations. Because it is difficult to make dosage adjustment in asuch a combination. However, using those separately is absolutely fine. Plus if you have been getting good glucose control with those drugs, then please do use separately. At the d...more
