Thanks for query.your blood sugar level suggests that diabetes is not in complete controlled stage but your hba1c value shows its normal.if some cones to my clinic with such s picture I would suggest increase the dose of pioglitazone only if you do not have any heart related problems because pioglit is wonderful drug but has dreadful side effects .remaing drugs are OK.better to consult your physician once .regards
