Hi, welcome to our site. I am Dr Saumya Mittal.

Read your query. That is a very significant question and i appreciate your problem. I will try my best to answer your query

the dose has to be individualized. its not a set dose like an antibiotic

But you sugars are fairly controlled. I would still suggest tab metformin in a patient of mine

as for obimet, its not for diabetes. its for weight loss, and should not be taken too long

I will suggest you to talk to your doc again regards the prescription

And would be good to check your HbA1C and lipid profile and lft, kft

I hope this helps you. Inform the reports mentioned above so i can be of help further. Best of luck.

I have given you the answer to the maximum considering the information provided. The results of the tests could further enhance my answer to you.

Please do understand that some details could be extracted from a detailed history and examination.

Looking forward to your return query with the details asked so that I can help you further.
(If the answer has helped you, please indicate this)
