Hi, i had gone through your query and understood your concerns.

Glimulin 2 is antidiabetic drug with generic glimipiride, Insumin plus contains methyl cobalamin,folic acid and benfothiamine which is of highly useful in diabetic patients.
But the thing is, your previous tripride 2 is more better drug to glimulin 2. usaually we do this when the sugar levels go too much low or in very goo control to lower the dosage. But here in your case, The sugar levels are only fair controlled. Please discuss regarding change of tripride to glimulin with your concerned doctor. Insulimin plus is good to add on.
Hope this guides you. Thank you
