Sir thanks for your detailed response. I am aged 50 years and diabetic from past 7 yrs. Also I have hypertension. My father was diabetic at the age of 55 years and mom is non diabetic. I take galvus met 500 mg in the morning and glycomet 500 mg at night. Also I take telvas 40 in the morning. This is somewhat manageable but my sugar level is around 230 most of the time. Can I take glycomet in the noon too? Sir I am not a foodie and prefer homemade simple food. Actually galvus met is too expensive. Earlier I took only glycomet and had plenty of stock. When I went to the doctor about a month ago he asked me to take galvus met twice a day and I told him that I have a lot of. Glycomet stock. So he asked me to take galvus met in the morning and glycomet at night. I have my regular periods and my hb count is 12. These are my details. Kindly help with economical tablets as I need to take for a life time and do not mind if it needs to be taken thrice.

Thanks for your Query. The current dose what you are taking is quite insufficient to control your blood sugar. You need to take the full dose and need to add another tablet to control your blood sugar. Yes there are many economical yet potent tablets to control your blood sugar. Before prescribing you we need to talk and I need to know several more details. For complete prescription and advice you can book an online consultation with me on Lybrate. Thank you. Take care till then.
