Hi, Sir My pancreas is not working at all, I take pancreatin 300 mg tab thrice a day. My PP sugar is 472. I have seen 2 doctors, One doctor suggested insulin twice (before breakfast & dinner). Other doctor suggested Glycomet GP 1 Forte (Glimepiride 1 mg + Metformin 1000 mg) in morning after food & insulin 12 unit after dinner. Which method should I follow?

Pancreas is the site to produce insulin in body. So if the pancreas is diseased the only option left is to give insulin from outside body by an injection. In my opinion glimeperide will not help you.
