Metformin 500mg To Regulate Sugar?
(Newest replies first)

Updated

I take this medication, but I am having trouble keeping my sugar down. It has been running high for a few weeks. My question is- can I take more Metformin to regulate my sugar? It is highest at night. I take 2 per day which is what is prescribed. Can I also take one before I go to bed?

I was on Zoryl M1 500 mg tablet and my sugar level going up, HbA1C is 6.5. Dr. Suggested Diabex @XR 1000 mg tablet, morning evening. I took one and it upsets me completely. What is the difference and should I reduce the dose.

I wouldn't suggest changing your medication, without first consulting your doctor. They are the ones who will best know how to help you with your problem.

Another thing that you have to take in consideration is your diet, if you are still continuing to just eat whatever you want, including foods that contain high amounts of fats and sugars, you can't expect this medication to be able to completely control your blood sugar levels.

In addition, you also need to make sure you are getting proper exercise.

Sometimes, the oral medications just don't work for some people and you may need to try something else, such as insulin shots.

Have you consulted your doctor, yet?

How high are your sugar levels?

Just add Fenfuro in your existing medicinal regime and feel the results within 3-6 months.
