Hello, you have to take medicines lifelong for this and keep bp and sugar both under control. If you will keep regular follow up and bp & sugar remains under control, you won't be having any problem. If you have any queries yet or uncontrolled sugar and wanna modify medicines, msg me with details and I will be glad to help.

Hello, thanks for the query.
I have seen the details. Please tell me why are you taking Vildagliptin as well as Linagliptin both? These are similar acting drugs. Only one is enough like Vildagliptin, which can be taken 50 mg twice a day. Or Linagliptin 5 mg twice a day. All gliptins as well as metformin can be taken just after food.
Please stick to one gliptin only. Thanks.

I don't recommend metformin more than 1500mg in a day. Kindly consult further with your recent blood sugar levels.

Mr. Lybrate-user, thanks for the query.
Tablet obimet contains metformin. Whereas vildagliptin is a different compound. These drugs are usaully combined together. But whether to to one or both depends on the glucose levels, hba1c%, I can not answer without all the necessary details. Thanks.

It will be better to add insulin to your medication for better blood sugar control.

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.
