Hi,

Thanks for posting your query.

Your fasting sugar is high and post lunch is also high.

Azulix 1 mf: contains tow drugs metformin(which you are currently taking)+glimeperide.

This is combination drug; this was prescribed as your blood sugar was very high.

When your sugar comes under control. you doctor might have think of reducing the dose.

Please understand some basic facts about the disease diabetes:

>You have to spare time to do exercise. This is must. Exercise burns sugar, make insulin in your body more effective and keep your sugar under control. You can light exercise any time of day provided you are not heavy on your stomach. Try doing at least 30 minutes of work out on most of days of week.
>Apart from diabetes please also get some routine investigations like lipid profile, kidney tests etc on regular basis, at least once and a year.
>Diet planning is very important part of diabetes control. Take small frequent meals during the day. Do not skip breakfast and take light dinner.

Do not worry, with healthy life style and drugs you will not have any problems. Just keep regular follow up with your doctor.


I hope this answers your query.

Wishing you good health.

Hi,

Good to hear from you again.

Any hour of the day, blood sugar has to be normal. Uncontrolled sugar for long time can affect vital organs of the body like heart, kidney, eyes etc in long term.

Again high sugar can predisposes to lots of infection like urinary tract, skin infections etc.

It is essential to have normal sugar all the time. There three pillars of blood sugar pyramid are drugs, diet and exercise.

The itching you have may to due to allergy to some thing, may be cosmetic allergy or something related to food you eat.

If it is bothersome please visit your doctor and get treated for this.

I hope this helps,

Regards,

Dr.Pragnesh
