An overdose of anything can be potentially fatal, especially this type of medication, which can drop a person's blood sugar far too low.

This however, would not be what is considered a side effect. Signs of overdosage can include: nausea, vomiting, severe drowsiness and respiratory impairment.


In the U.S. it is available in dosages of up to 1,000mgs, though you should follow your doctor or pharmacists instructions for how much to use and how often to take it.

At present I am prescribed glycomet GP2 before breakfast and dinner and one onglyza before lunch for one month. The HbA1c was 7.8 though the fasting and pp blood sugar levels were at 86 and 88 respectively after three weeks of glycomet GP2 thrice a day with onglyza before lunch as now.
I am having diabetes for 20 years and had angioplasty in July 2010. Is the dose ok?
