Your father needs to increase the dose of novomix to maybe 30- 0- 15-/20 and see in addition to taking voglie. While taking a higher dose of insulin regular monitoring for hypoglycemia is needed.

Hello, Thanks for the query. From the given information he is already on plenty of medications. A slight adjustment in Insulin dosage (increase by 2 units) and / or dietary adjustment would be more appropriate than adding any further drugs. What is fasting glucose as well as HbA1c%? At his age there is really no need for very strict glucose control. Thanks.
