Dr. lybrate-user for the query. The blood glucose levels mentioned are fairly high, suggesting diabetes is uncontrolled. It is clear that present medication is not really helping, there is a need for up gradation of treatment. Ideally in a well controlled diabetesfasting should be < 100 mg, PP 160 to 180 mg in a slightly older person. HbA1c% < 7. To help achieve better control we need to look at his dietary pattern, extent of daily physical activity (exercise) and the medication. I would be glad to help, provided you come in a private conversation (paid consultation) as in this communication we are not supposed to give any prescriptions. I can only give general guide lines. Please come back with following information: weight, height, dietary pattern extent of daily exercise and HbA1c%. Thanks.
