Hello doctor, I took Amlodipine basilate and Crocin yesternight to get relief from High Blood pressure and the headache, respectively. And this morning i got diagnosed with elevated Blood Glucose ( 133). I was also diagnosed with High Prolactin ( 22.70) and also taking Cabgolin 0.5mg on weekly basis. I am a Pre-diabetic and wish to know whether and the above said medicins were the `cause` of the elevated Blood glucose. Thank a lot.

Hi friend,
Welcome to Health Care Magic

These medicines do not increase the sugar.
As a matter of fact, 'cabgolin' helps to reduce!.

'Pre-diabetes' was already there.
It had been unmasked.
Often, it is only a question of time.
There are several reasons to hasten - weight gain, for example.

Increased prolactin and Diabetes - an endocrinologist will be best suited to treat.
With headache in addition, pituitary micro-adenoma may have to be excluded.

Take care
Wishing speedy recovery
God bless
Good luck
