My age is 53 years, and weight 82 Kg. I was diagnosed with Diabetes Mellitus Type2, about 10 years ago. Initially I controlled it with diet , then after 4 years I was prescribed Metformin 250mg twice a day. Then since 3(Three) years I?ve been taking OZOMET ? PG1 twice daily with regular exercise and 4 Km morning walk. Of late since about 2 months due to a marriage in the family and cold winter mornings, there has been some unwarranted intake of sweetmeat and laxity in the regular exercise regimen, resulting in high blood-sugar levels ranging from 110-180 (Fasting) and 160-220 (PP). Kindly advise if I should increase the intake of the prescribed medicine or control the same with refrain from sweets and improve the regularity of exercise.
