I m a diabetic (take (GLIMEPIRIDE 2 mg + METFORMIN 500 mg) after breakfast & METFORMIN 500 mg after dinner) & 10 iu insulin everynight ,fasting 80, PP 287 measured today. For the last 1 year, I m seeing that my fasting glucose level is under 100, but PP is above 200. What are the medicines I should take? More over what is the difference will be in result if a patient take GLIMEPIRIDE 2 mg + METFORMIN 1000 mg instead of GLIMEPIRIDE 1 mg + METFORMIN 1000 mg?
