Hello,
There are various ways by which your sugar levels can be controlled.
..you may increase the dose of current medicines.
...you can add medicine like VOGLIBOSE or GLIPTIN like SITAGLIPTIN.
...you can add injection lantus in the night to the current treatment.
I would advise you not to do anything yourself and must consult either a diabetologist or an internal medicine specialist for proper guidance and management.
Thanks
