Diabetes Drugs

Ihave been diabetic 2 for the last 10 years.I was prescribed Glipermide and Metformin.But it was suggested to stop Metformin as I had higher creatinine.Taking Insulin (Novomix 30) morning and evening plus Trajenta 5.I want to stop insulin suggest drugs ## You shouldn't stop the insulin, unless your doctor instructs you to do so. It is very important to keep your blood sugar under control, letting it get out of control can be very dangerous and possibly life-threatening, according to the AMA. Why do you want to stop the insulin? I am not sure what other medications are available for you that would be safe for you to take. Have you discussed it with your doctor?

I too have received a similar email "talk video" on this same topic. Only, it is from a British (U.K.) based outfit, but with exactly the same format as the HSI one that is being mentioned throughout the discussions here. It is being narrated by a "Rachael Linkie", "Managing Director", supposedly of the "Journal of Natural Health Solutions", and the subject title is..."7 Riskiest Drugs Big Pharma Wants You To Swallow". In it, is also the mention by name, of DBX-13, as the Diabetes Miracle Cure, along with a few other medical conditions and their appropriate natural cures like, high cholesterol, high blood pressure, dementia, etc.. This particular site is offering free download of their book offer "Treasury of Underground Remedies: 167 Natural ...

I want to know information about each drug schedule ## I found a round yellow tablet with the imprints 44 403 on it and I looked it up and it said it was a 'schedule class N controlled substance'. I don't know about any scheduled or class with that. Would you please inform me on what it is? ## It says Glimepiride is a Schedule N drug. What does it mean? I am supposed to take it for my diabetes.

Will hydrocodone/APAP 5/325 raise glucose levels for diabetics? ## I've done several searches on the medication information and haven't found anything stating that it's been known to do so, but you should check with your doctor, or pharmacist to be certain. Was it prescribed by the same doctor that treats you for Diabetes?

Am on qutipin does it have any effects if am taking diabetes drugs such as Tripride 2. Does qutipin taking has any side effects to my diabetes. ## Hello, John! How are you? Yes, Quitpin can reduce the efficacy of most diabetic medications, including Tripride 2. That could result in the loss of blood sugar control and it may rise to dangerous levels. The U.S. FDA lists other typical side effects as possibly including nausea, dizziness, headache and weight gain. Has your doctor prescribed these medications for you?

would like to suggest a glucose pen such like the epi pen for my brother with type 1 diabetes. ## And Epi pen, is Ephiphrine, used to treat allergies and would not do anything for diabetes. You are able to buy both tablets that dissolve in the mouth, as well as liquid drops at virtually any drugstore, that work fast to relieve a low sugar attack. Orange Juice, or any liquid with a regular sugar content will help to bring him out of it, just follow it with something like yogurt or a sandwich that contains long sugar molecules to maintain the sugar balance at a higher level. ## Glucagon is an injectable treatment for low blood sugar, primarily for those with type 1 diabetes or who have frequent low blood sugars that require help to treat. It works much like an Epipen and comes in a kit. I...
