Hi,
It is possible that drugs used for gastric problems may reduce the absorption of diabetic drugs, making them too little absorbed.
Second, it may not be related to drugs also. check out what has caused your gastric problem (like increased spicy and mixed diet, alcohol, smoking, stress) may also have contribute to your rising sugar levels, most important is stress.
we advice you to cut down your calories, exercise a bit and keep away from stress by meditation or yoga. you should see your results back to normal.
hope this helped.
