Hi I am 35 years old male had been diagnosed with diabetes a year back and have been taking sitagliptin jenuvia 100 mg in morning before breakfast and glycomet forte 0.5 mg in night before dinner but still every morning my sugar levels are around 125-145 with all dietary precautions and walk of nearly 10 kms a day please advise some method to reduce levels especially in fasting without medicines or maybe some Ayurvedic way as I know in long run these medicines would have very bad effects on my health.

the idea that anti diabetic medications cause long term bad side effects is itself wrong. There millions of patients on oral anti diabetic drugs, properly controlling blood sugar levels and living a good life. To my knowledge there are no drugs in other branches of medicine which have any action on insulin secretion or reducing sugar levels. As regards reducing the fasting levels you may have to give a re look at your diet and total calories consumed in a day. Or you may have to add another drug to control sugar level.
