Mr. lybrate-user Thanks for the query. Your glucose levels are normal. I really do not see the reason for prescription of metformin. Following are the criteria for diagnosing diabetes & related conditions: 1)Normal: FBG: 70 to 100 mg (earlier 110 mg), PP < 140 mg & HbA1c% <5.7% 2) Pre-diabeteic: FBG:101 to 125 mg, PP 141 to 199 mg & HbA1c% 5.7 to 6.4% 3) Diabetes: FBG 126 mg and above, PP 200 mg and above & HbA1c% 6.5 5 and above. I hope things are clear to you. Thanks.
