I am 38/male with type 2 diabetes. My sugar levels were close to 250 after meals (PP) even when I was taking Galvus Met 50/500 after each meal. My doctor has now increased the dose to Galvus met 50/1000 mg after each meal (lunch and dinner). I want to ask if this much dose along with diet control and exercise can lower the sugar level even below normal which can be dangerous. Please suggest. Thanks.

No. The medicines prescribed to you will not cause the sugar to go below normal levels. They work in a way that the sugar level will drop to normal levels and not below that irrespective of the dose. The dose given to you is perfect.
