Trigulin 2 Tablet Er Health Feed

Hello, thanks for the query.
The tablet mentioned is to be taken for treating diabetes for quite a long time. Because diabetes is going to go away after 16 days. Since no other information is guven like fasting, pp glucose & hba1c%, no further comments can be made. If you have developed diabetes then treatment has to be continued for life time. If you have any questions please come back with all the necessary details. Thanks.

Your father requires radical change in his treatment as hes elderly and these medices even though are not doing him any good on the contrary may be harmful as Pioglitazone in high doses may increase fracture risk and other problems. Also with advance diabetes these medicines may not work at all.

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

It seems that the diet also is not being followed. Please follow strict diet and exercise. Continue current medicines and add tab olymprix 20 mg one after breakfast and tab pioz 15 mg one after dinner. Check blood sugars after 10 days and consult your doctor.

First we should measure his lipid profile and hba1c levels in blood and than we can change the drugs

Hello both sugar and bp levels are high. Get examined by Dr. immediately.

Dear lybrate-user,
I find that your father is quite overweight his correct weight should be about 55-60 kg. I suggest that he go on a strict diet (low carbohydrate, normal protein and fat, walk about 5 km per day and gradually reduce weight to about 60 kg. Keep monitoring his sugars at home with a glucometer (fasting and 2 hours after each meal) once a week if the sugars get under control with this dietary modification he may not need additional medication

1. Avoid nose picking / nose blowing
2. Get your b. P. Checked
3. Consult ent specialist for any local (nose) abnormality.

Not to reduce dose
continue same but take glimipiride metformin sr 1 20 min before breakfast instead lunch
and the other 20 min before dinner.
