Brief Answer:
Need regulation of diabetic medications

Detailed Answer:
Hello

Thanks for the query

Taking Wyselone is essential as you have been diagnosed with ILD. However one of the main side effect of taking wyselone is that blood sugars may go up. So I strongly recommend that you monitor your blood sugars more closely, I usually tell my patients to buy a Glucometer and monitor the sugars at home. I ask them to monitor, fasting blood sugar, post prandial and pre dinner blood sugars twice a week. Depending on that your anti diabetic medications should be altered.

Please note that it is preferable to take wysolone in the mornings along with fruit juice and calcium supplements like calcium carbonate 500 mg along with it to prevent osteoporosis

I hope I was of help, if you have any further queries please get back to me

I wish you good health and a speedy recovery
