I am 47 male, known diabetic for 10+ years on medication. Current medication is diamicron 30 mg sr 1 tab bbf, glyciphage 500 sr 1 tab each before lunch and dinner. I am a lean diabetic with bmi of 21. Current readings of fbs :119, ppbs :191, hba1c: 6.2. Other profiles such as lipid, renal, thyroid, liver are within normal limits. Fasting sugar and ppbs varies between 115 & 130 and 170& 210. Hba1c ranges between 6.2 and 6.5. This range is for the last 6 to 8 months. Do I need to change my medication? I have no other complaints.

Hello, Thanks for the query. I have seen the details mentioned. The FBG & PP glucose levels look quite good. Even the HbA1c% is too is quite good. So it appears your current treatment (drugs) and the lifestyle being adapted are helping you to remain well controlled. Minor variations in any of those values is not much of a botheration. Please continue to follow the current lifestyle and the same treatment. Being lean is absolutely no issue at all. If you have any questions please do come back. Thanks.
