Mr. lybrate-user, Thanks for the query. Fasting 160 mg is very high and PP 210 mg is moderately high. It is clear that present treatment is not adequate. It needs to be upgraded, some other drug may be required in addition to Metformin. Therefore, may talk to the doctor concerned and get the treatment changed. If you are looking for online help or guidance, then please come in a private conversation (paid consultation), with following details: current Fasting, PP glucose levels, HbA1c%, lipid profile, BP readings, present dietary pattern, extent of daily exercise and medications taken with dosage. Then I will be able to give specific guidance. In this communication we are supposed to give only general guidelines, no prescriptions are allowed. Thanks.
