Mr. lybrate-user, Thanks for the query.
The dosage of various medicines for glucose control can be adjusted on the basis of patients needs, doctor's advise and also based on dietary intake. Usually Glimepiride is either given once a day or twice in some cases. Metformin can be given 3 times a day again depending upon the need. Voglibose is usually recommended with each meal, that is three times a day. As it is mainly for reducing post food glucose rise. Thanks.

Hello sir, I am avinash kumar. My age is 37. I am suffering from diabetic. My weight is only 65 kg and a height of 5 feet 5 inch. I am an electrical engineer and my duty is related to field work (government epc work), so I am active mostly .i am serving here since last 10 years but what I think "my diet time was not regular" mostly time I had to go site on 08: 00 a.m. And there was no regular time for lunch, when the ongoing work is executed. Sometimes I was hungry whole the day. I had nor checkup my body since last 5 years, but last year on 27 july'18 I know that I have type-2 diabetic. But I realize that these symptoms of diabetic (like too much hunger, confusion,headache etc) were also present last 3 to 4 years back. Now I am taking only 1 medicine (amaryl 2 mg, glimepiride ip 2 mg) and completely avoid sugar in any form (sweets, chocolate, sugar free tablet) my present diet is only wheat chapati, green sabji, daal. Occasionally chicken curry, boiled egg, and consumes 1 liye milk daily during 24 hours in the form of tea, diet, and drink. My diet time are morning 9: 00a.m. Lunch 02: 00 p.m. Dinner 10: 00-11: 00 p.m. I live alone without family members. I am also doing 3 km morning walk daily. But still now I am facing high glucose level typically 140 (fasting). And 220 (post prandial) also I had done 2 times hba1c test on 27 august18 and on 30 january19. But both test result the same 6.1 and this hba1c test shows an average glucose level of 128 mg/dl. Also 1 time I examined urine uric acid test, which is normal and no presence of ketone. This was brief details of myself. Now my question is amaryl 2 mg is ok for me? Or I have to avoid such a food which is being continuously consumed by me in the misunderstanding.

Mr. lybrate-user, Thanks for the query.
When one takes adequate dosage of drugs, plus follows a strictly controlled diet and does regular exercise, blood glucose does get controlled. Therefore, it appears your present treatment is not proper. I need to know following things for giving any suggestions: fasting & PP glucose levels, HbA1c%, present dietary pattern and extent of daily exercise. Looking at your weight and height it is clear that with a BMI of 28.23 kgs/Sq meter (normal < 23 kgs/S...more
