Is Taking Teneligliptin Advisable Instead Of Glycogen For Diabetes?

I am on glycogen GP 1 . My fasting blood sugar level is around 100. But the post prondial is around 180. I take the above drug twice daily. My glycosulated blood sugar is around 7.6. I am 73 years old and diabetic for the last 45 years. I am active and play golf once a week. My weight is 62 KG. I am thinking of changing the drug to teneligliptin so that my post prondial sugar level is under control. What is your advice. My mail id is YYYY@YYYY

Thanks for asking at Healthcare Magic. I read your question and I understand your concern.
No, you cannot replace it rather you can add it to achieve tight glycemic control.
I would suggest you to have regular aerobic excersize thirty minute a day five times a week.
Hope it helps best.
Take your best care.
