Mr. lybrate-user, thanks for the query. Since you are already on metformin and have hba1c% 6.5%, means there is diabetes. As you have not provided any other information like weight, height, dietary pattern, extent of daily exercise, serum creatinine & urea, as well as lipid profile, there is no way to say anything further. Please come back with all the necessary details, then only I will be able to give any specific advice. Thanks.
