Brief Answer:
Physical activity can lower it.

Detailed Answer:
Hello.

Thank you for the query.

Insulin injection would be the most effective treatment. If you dont have any insuline, than physical activity and mineral water intake should lower the glucose level.
It seems like metformin is not very effective at this point and you need treatment modification. Please consult your doctor.

Hope this helps.
Regards.
