Yes absolutely you can take tablet triglimiprex 2 half tab b.i.d after meal, and for health capsule pregabanyl 1 capsule at bed time in night, no any food restrictions please enjoy all types of food.

According to the treatment you are getting, I can see the effort of your doctor. I think you should consider taking insulin atleast for one time in a day to control it along with your medication. As you have hba1c of 10.8, it's good for your health to start insulin atleast once daily. Pls consult to your doctor about it or you can consult me online m.

For metformin extended release, the maximum doasge is 2000 grams a day provided kidney function is ok. You coul change jalra m to jalra. But in the light of hba1c creeping above 9 I would suggest you to start a long acting insulin, preferably lantus.

The delayed version releases the drug more slowly and this usually eliminates the gastrointestinal problems.

Ir is immediate release and sr is sustained release formulations. Both work well but usually sr formulations have lesser gastrointestinal side effects.

Yes, glycomet is on of the brands of the salt metformin that is used to manage diabetes. Other brands are- glyciphage, cetapin, exermet.

Hello, thanks for the query.
Both the products are same. The er refers to extended release, which means the drug is released slowly over 12 hours in the gut. That helps maintain a longer therapeutic level. It is beneficial more so if a person has any side effects like gastrointestinal disturbances if plain metformin is taken. Both are fine. Thanks.
