Hello, thanks for the query.

Glimestar m2 contains 2 mg glimiperide and 500 mg metformin. There are many such combinations available if you ask your usual pharmacist (such as glimy m2, and glycomet gp2)

Mr S Murugaraj, The sugar levels are high particularly fasting one. What is the HbA1c%? Plus tell me do you exercise daily regularly for at least 1 hour? What is your dietary pattern? It will be better if you come in a private conversation with all the details, where i will be able to give specific suggestions.

Mr. lybrate-user, Looking at your height and weight, it is clear that your BMI is 27.62 kgs/M2, showing excess weight. Your ideal body weight should be 75 kgs. For ED if you want to use some drugs like PDE - V inhibitors that can be beneficial. Thanks.

You should keep checking your blood glucose fasting and 2 hrs post food regularly. You may have developed some mild GI side effecr with your previous medicine which are gone with the new that tou have started. But hypoglycemia is a risk which can be prevented with regular monitoring. For chronic pancreatitis patient with diabetes this combination is okay. But insulin will be better in acute pancreatitis or with increased abdominal pain any time. Keep monitoring.
