Dear lybrate-user, you are reasonably on good control of your blood sugar levels with medicines. If you stop or reduce the doses, it may again start rising. You haven't mention your age. I would suggest you better concentrate on losing 10% of your weight, there are very good chances of reduction of dose of your diabetes medicines. Take care.

Hello sir, yes you can skip glucored forte taking at night time thanks.

Vyankatesh Shivane · Answer

Yes. You can reduce the tablet. Infact that should be your air to reduce and one day stop completely. Now you can make it only one tablet per day in the morning and stop the night dose. You can check your sugars after 3 weeks ; if normal make morning dose to half only. Follow diet and exercise strictly.

In addition to medicines follow this
1. Don't take tea empty stomach. Eat something like a banana (if you are not diabetic). ) or any seasonal  fruit or soaked almonds and a glass of water first thing in the morning (within 10 mins of waking up). No only biscuits or rusk will not do. 
2. Don't Overeat 
3. Take your breakfast every day. Don't skip it. U can eat whatever ur mother or grandparent eat in bfast. I mean to say whatever is ur traditional food. If punjabi eat paratha, if belongs to south then take idli/ dosa etc.
4. Have light meals every 2 hours (in addition to your breakfast, lunch n dinner) e.g. Nariyal paani, chaach, a handful of dry fruits, a handful of peanuts, seasonal fruit, a cup of curd/milk etc
5. Finish your dinner at least 2 hours before going to sleep.
6.  Avoid fast foods n fried foods	
7.Take a lot of green vegetables n fruit. 
8. Drink lot of water	
9. Everyday preferably sleep on same time
10. Maintain active life style
Exercise in the form of yoga, cycling, Swimming, gymming etc.
Now about point no. 10. You should join a gym for weight training. Do it 2-3 times a week with at least 48 hours in between 2 sessions. On other days u can do cardio exercises. For more details u can consult me.
