Considering his blood sugar level of 270 IMO metformin alone is not enough. He need to increase his medication. It is advisable to do Fasting / Postmeal sugar test and HbA1c test & Consult any Diabetologist with reports for uptitrating medication dose.

Mr. lybrate-user, Thanks for the query. Blood glucose level 270 mg (fasting or after food is not mentioned), is high. It means that present treatment is not really helping in controlling the glucose level properly. He does need some additional drugs. Plus there needs to be a close given to diet and extent of exercise being done daily. Thanks.
