Hello, thanks for the query. I have seen the details mentioned. Your fasting appears quite good, but pp is still high. So there is a need to look at overall treatment which includes your dietary pattern, extent of daily exercise, medications, bp & lipid profile and current hba1c%. So please come back with necessary details preferably in a private conversation so that I will be able to give specific advise and also prescribe the medication if required. In this communication we are supposed to give only general advise, no drugs can be recommended. Thanks.

You should take insulin for some time.

Dear Mr. lybrate-user, I note that your fasting blood sugar is under better control after you changed your medication. However your post meal blood sugar is on the high side and I note that your weight is only 60 kg which is a bit low for your height. Check with your family doctor about the need to take insulin for improving diabetes control and to gain weight to optimal body weight
