Mr. Lybrate-user, the tablet mentioned has 4 mg of glimiperide and 1000 mg metformin. This is a high dose particularly if some one is starting the treatment. Plus dose is also dependent on blood sugar levels both fasting and pp. Plus hba1c%. So I need to know that before guiding regarding whether to take that tablet or not. Thanks.

Do not worry. Please follow a disciplined and healthy lifestyle. If you become active and eat the right food then your health status will improve a lot. Start with daily exercise for 30 minutes. Then increase it to 1 hour. You can do yoga and pranayama to balance your health. Revert after one month. You can add Homeopathy after that. You can contact me online if needed for Homeopathic treatment.
