Sir, myself satya. My father is a diabetes patient. His fasting blood sugar is 76 & after food blood sugar is 190. He is taking glycomet trio 2 for 2 times before food istamet 50/500 for 3 times after food & basalog insulin 10 units for one time. Now his doctor prescribed t'glip m 500 instead of istamet 50/500. Sir, my father having moderate enlarged liver. I've heard that composition of t'glip m 500 is not good for liver problem. Sir, my question is whether this new medicine will be good or harmful for my father. Sir please just suggest me should my father go for it or not.

Your father's fasting blood sugar is low, it should be kept around 100 to avoid hypoglycemia. His pp blood sugar is mildly high and should be kept around 160. Most of the drugs are metabolized in liver. In moderate enlargement of liver one should look into liver functions also.

Mr Satyabrata, Thanks for the query. I have seen the details given. The glucose levels mentioned are quite well controlled. However, regarding the change of drugs (adding Tenelegliptin instead of Sitagliptin) may be due to cost. There is no worry about the safety of Tenelegliptin at all. It is quite good. In fact it helps in improvement of liver functions. So no need to worry. Thanks.
