Vildagliptin Health Feed

Yes it can be taken. But first get yourself evaluated for the reason for your hand pain. 6 months is a long period and a patient especially diabetic should not ignore such symptoms.

It is better to add another tablet for diabetes apart from what you are using now. Insulin is a good option.

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.

Take a close look at your diet, icrease daily exercise to more than 1 hour a day. That should help.

Your ppbs is on a higher side. From the history you are giving, I think you are developing neuropathy, a complication of diabetes. Go and get your foot examined by a podiatrist.

She has to check her hba1c and will need to revise medicines and better start insulin. To prescribe ask privately.
