Hello, thanks for the query. The drug mentioned does not cause any increase in blood glucose levels. Blood glucose rises because of overall food intake like roti, chapati, rice, other cereals, potatoes, bananas etc. So just stopping sugar intake is not going reduce glucose levels. There has to be a closer look at overall diet, extent of exercise, weight & height. Pre-diabetes is a warning sign. One can prevent diabetes if proper care is taken. Thanks.
