Hello, thanks for the query.
Madam most of the currently used drugs in treating diabetes are quite safe. Metformin is in use for over 60 years. Glimiperide is in use over 20 years and is very well tolerated.
In fact more than the drugs it is the uncontrolled blood glucose level which is more dangerous, as it leads to setting in of long term complications associated with diabetes affecting a number of vital systems. So please look at achieving a strict glucose control than worrying about ...more

Once you conceive you can stop glycomet and till than exercise regularly till you have sweating and at any point of time you have giddines than get your sugar checked at that time and concentrate on weight reduction and continuation of glycomet depends on how much insulin resistance you have and how much obese you are.

Hello, thanks for the query.
Tablet gluconorm 500sr is containing only 500 mg of metformin in sustained release form. Where as the gluconorm pg2 contains glimiperide 2 mg and pioglitazone 15 mg. The second tablet must have been prescribed because the blood glucose levels are not in control. Thanks.

Plus there is no information on glucose levels (fastiing, pp & hba1c%), nothing about your dietary pattern weight, height and extent of exercise as well as lipid profile. So it is difficult to answer your question. However, most of the ayurvedic medicines used in diabetes can at the most work as additional support medications, with out modern drugs controlling...more
