What Is The Treatment For Slowly Rising Fasting Sugar Levels?
Doctor, I have diagnosed for diabetics for around a year. I am 5' 8" and weigh 76Kgs. From about 4 months i am taking Metformin SR 500 mg after dinner. The sugar was 120/180mg/dL before/after fasting. The sugar levels are 140-145 mg/dl on fasting and 282 mg/dl yesterday. I have been observing the fasting levels slowly rising. The doctor has prescribed gluformin g1. Please advise
