Hello, thanks for the query. I have seen the details given. With earlier medication your glucose control was much strict mainly due to presence of sitagliptin with metformin, plus there was voglibose also. Now since you have shifted to only metformin, your pp glucose is slightly higher at 161 mg/100 ml. This is still quite good, well within the very good control range. In this situation if you concentrate on proper diet and regular exercise, then still better control can be achieved. So please continue the same treatment. Also do look at hba1c% which will give a better idea of last 3 months control. Most important is to maintain your proper lifestyle. Thanks.
