Hi, Was taking glycomet gp2 forte before breakfast and dinner. Hba1c was 8.7. Dr. advised to take zita 20 after breakfast and pioglitazone 15 after dinner along with other tablets. Hba1c has come down to 8.1. My fbs yesterday was 169. Today 172. Should I take zita 50 to further bring down by hba1c. thank you.

Thanks for the query. When diabetes is well controlled fasting is around or below 100 mg, PP 150 to 170 mg & HbA1c% < 6.8. With HbA1c% 8.1, it is clear that your blood glucose is not well controlled. There is relook needed for current treatment. As regards Zita (Tenelegliptin) the dose is only 20 mg once a day. Thanks.
