My sugar shows 400 before & 350 after meals. Pls tell me how to control even though I use medicine two times daily
.(glimepiride 1 mg)

Question

Hello, thanks for the query. The glucose levels mentioned clearly show that present treatment is not helping, there is need for immediate upgrade. Ideally your fasting glucose should be < 100 mg or closer to 100 mg, pp 150 to 170 mg & hba1c% <6.8%. To give any suggestions I need to know following details: current fasting, pp glucose levels, hba1c%, lipid profile, present dietary pattern, extent of daily exercise, weight, height, serum creatinine and urea. It is better if you come in a private conversation (paid consultation), then I will be able to give specific guidance plus prescribe necessary medication. In this communication we are supposed to give only general guidelines, no drugs can be prescribed. Or else please consult your local physician and get the whole tratment upgraded. It is essential to achieve a strict glucose control, to prevent or postpone the long term complications related to diabetes. Please do not neglect. I await your response. Thanks.

Glimepiride 1 mg will not be sufficient for controlling such high levels. You can consult me online for specific guidance and treatment.
