Thanks for your Query. Your information is incomplete. For better advice you should give both FBS, PPBS and also HbA1c. Secondly you didn't mention the dose of Glycomet..!! Thirdly Galvus met should be taken twice daily for effective action. Let me know more details for complete advice. For any further information or advice you can book an online consultation with me on Lybrate. Thank you. Take care till then.

No side effects of glizid or matilda .use some lublicant like ghee on lips twice a day .It will be ok.

Please mention correct figures. You mentioned BP as 95/100 (please check it again because this is not correct and of I consider it as 100/95 nobody will prescribe medicine for it) Try to avoid unnecessary medication as you have mentioned you have one kidney. Mildly hogh cholesterol can be corrected with doet and regular exercise, which will be helpful in diabetes control also.

Volix reduces b.s by preventing intestinal absorption upto 50 mg only Galvus reduce bs by acting on pancreas by increasing insulin which is more effective.

Hello, Thanks for the query. I have gone through the details given. It is clear that with present treatment blood glucose is not in control as it should be. Ideally fasting glucose should be < 100 mg, PP 160 to 180 mg & HbA1c% < 7 (not mentioned). There is need to either add some additional drug or change the treatment. Also look at your diet and extent of daily physical activity, that will also help in better control of blood glucose. As regards platelet count getting affected (no actual cont mentioned), so no comment can be made. None of the given drugs cause that side effect. It is better to test fasting, PP and HbA1c% and inform, then a proper suggestion can be made. That too if you come in a private conversation as in this communication we are supposed to give only general guidelines and no prescriptions. Thanks.

Mr. lybrate-user, Looking at your age, height and weight, your ideal body weight (IBW) should be 177.5 - 100 = 77.5 X 0.9 = 69.75 kgs. Hence I do not see any reason why one should be worried about the weight loss. Your current BMI is 23.17 kgs / M2, which absolutely normal. When a person is on pioglitazone then there is a tendency to add weight, due to that drug's side effect. Vildagliptin is a weight neutral drug and metformin can help in weight reduction if one is over weight. In fact maintaining a good weight close recommended BMI of 23 kgs/M2 is excellent. I do not see any reason why one should think of adding extra at all. Thanks.

This is dawn phenomenon. Or it could be somogi effect. Get blood sugar tests between 2 to 4 am if low it's somogi otherwise it's dawn phenomenon take 2 biscuits marie at midnight and see results after 2 weeks. Do brisk walk early morning on getting up before doing blood sugar fasting test. Consult again.

You will need slight alteration of medication. Don't reduce your meals too much as this may have a negative effect on your body. Cut down on simple sugars. Eat chapati instead of rice. Oats instead of dosa. This will help.

Hello, there are more economical substitutes available and equally effective and safe. But to suggest any drug, I need to know present fasting, pp sugar levels, hba1c%, diet details and daily extent exercise.
