Mr. lybrate-user, 48 mg / 100 ml glucose is seriously low level. It can cause severe damage including unconsciousness. When glucose level starts going below 70 mg, it starts producing hypoglycemic symptos. One should not allow the level to go down like that. Please look at your total treatment and fasting, Pp levels and HbA1c5. Thanks.

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, thanks for the query.

On going through those I will be able to comment. At yur age pp level of 180 mg to ...more

Mr Vijay, Thanks for the query.
I have seen the details given. Please tell me what is your question? The drugs prescribed are for treating diabetes.
There is absolutely no information on blood glucose levels(fasting & PP), HbA1c%, weight, height, age, diet pattern, extent of daily exercise, BP readings& lipid profile. So there is no way to comment any thing. Thanks.
