If you are not having any side effects like hypoglycemia, you should continue with the same treatment. Because if you reduce the dose, the chances are that blood sugar will creep up again. Also your triglyceride is high so, you should make life style modifications (low calorie diet & exercise) to bring it down.

Your blood sugar is not under control. You should intensify lifestyle modifications. You also need to change or increase dose of diabetes medications. You target hba1c should be less than 7.
Also triglyceride is high. You should take balanced diet with ample green leafy vegetables. Avoid high glycemic index food like white bread, potato and sugar. Avoid ghee, butter ,oil.
Exercise regularly (at least 150 mins per week).

Hello, thanks for the query. The. Glucose levels & hba1c% show you have excellent control. I could not get any clear information what medications you are taking. Glycinorm is metformin but no strength is mentioned. The tablet name or ingredient is not clear. So please come back with specific details plus your height & weight as well as day physical activity. Then I will be able to guide. Thanks.

Fasting sugar should be less than 100 and post meal less than 140. Medications depends on the trend if sugar. How often it is increased.
It's advisable to undergo hba1c test and consult a general physician if hba1c >6.5%
