Dear Doctor, I am taking oral medication to control blood sugar levels for past 9.5 years. At present I take morning and night one tablet each having combination of 500 mg metformin with 40mg Gliclazide. In the afternoon it is Vildagliptin 50mg. With this I have kept my HBA1C under 7.0. Do I still have a choice of medicines before turning on finally to Insulin?

Hi if your sugar levels are in control, then there is no need to change medications or add any for the time being. However, person with t2 diabetes at some point of time in the treatment may have go in for insulin injections. Right now for you this stage is not there.
