Can I Take Glyree After Breakfast For Controlling Blood Sugar?
I am a heart patient and underwent angioplasty in January, 1999. Presently on medication. I am also suffering from type 2 diabetes. I am taking Glyree 1 just before breakfast or main meal for diabetes. however, very frequently I forget to take Glyree 1 just before or with breakfast or main meal as advised by the attending physician. How to get out of this problem, I don t know. Would it be alright if I take Glyree 1 right after breakfast or main meal i.e. Lunch? Kindly advise me properly. - CHANDI

Dear sir I can understand your concern
I would like to tell you about the mode of working of your medication
it is also called as glimipride
this medication will act on pancreatic beta cells by which it stimulate the production of insulin
this medication works better on taking 10-15 mins before food
by doing so you can match the insulin realize and glucose absorption
this medication works for 10-12 hour so it's advisable to take it before breac fast for a better coverage
