I was taking Glycomet SR 1 gm 1 tab daily with result that my blood sugar remained - fasting 80-90 and PP 130-140. But for last few months I am taking 2 tab per day and the blood sugar is not comming down from 115 fasting and PP 145-150.

I'm asking, because you don't actually become immune to a drug, you build up a tolerance to it and raising the dosage usually helps ...

Hi, I've been taking Glycomet 850 Sr for the past 4 months after dinner.... In the morning after a brisk walk I begin feeling headaches.... Why is this so? ## Hello, Shan! How are you doing? Has there been any change? Have you ever checked your blood sugar, when you experience the headaches? If you're taking a brisk walk in the morning and haven't eaten much yet, or if it is very soon after eating, your blood sugars could be dropping too low, which may explain the headaches. The U.S. FDA does list that as being a possible side effect of hypoglycemia.

I am having pain in the calf zone due to pull of the siatic nerve or so. Is it connected with use of Glycomet SRand Glycomet GPi over long period (of years) to combat diabetics. ## No, it isn't likely that it's due to using the medication, but it may be due to the diabetes itself. If you're blood sugars haven't been under control then it can cause nerve damage. Do you take your medication as prescribed? Do you also watch your diet and check your blood sugar regularly?
