Hello, Thanks for the query.
SInce both preparations contain Gliclazide, there is no difference. XL means sustained release, the molecule is released over a few hours, so that consistent amount of drug is available. Thanks.

Hello, Thanks for the query.
The drugs prescribed for yor father Gliclazide and Voglibose are well known and safe drugs. There are hardly any side effects. Persons with diabetes take these drugs for years together. Both are very well tolerated compounds. Therefore, if his diabetes is well controlled, then he should continue the same. In a well controlled diabetes Fasting Glucose should be < 100 mg, Pp 150 to 160 mg & HbA1c% <6.8. Thanks.

Hello, Thanks for the query.
It is bit strange to know that you are taking Glimiperide as well as Gliclazide as both drugs are similar in action. I do not understand how such a prescription is given. Any ways if you want to take any multivitamin it is finr. Thanks.

Mr. lybrate-user, Thanks for the query.
I have gone through the details given. I really do not see the reason to change to newer tablets, because earlier too you were on Tenelegliptin, then Dimicron (Gliclazide) with metformin. The newer tablets do not have Gliclazide, hence the blood glucose control will not be as good as earlier.
You should contnue the earlier drugs, plus take a restricted diet and do more exercise per day ove 1 hour. That will help in reducing HbA1c%. Thanks.

Once you achieve a stable blood glucose level, you need to keep taking the medications. Discontinuing diabetes medications will increase blood glucose levels and damage kidneys and nerves at a faster pace. No amount of dietary restriction and/or exercise is sufficient to keep blood glucose level at a stable rate without medication.
