Dear Prasad,
Namaskaram...
Welcome to HCM.
I have gone through your reports. All parameters seem to be fine except for the sugars. Keeping in mind the duration of diabetes and the current dosage of medicine i would prefer to change your glimipride (blisto ) to a stronger sulphonylurea. Glimipride is a very safe tablet and is also cardiac friendly but given the duration of diabetes i think glimipride wont do the job. i also notice that your FBS is more than your PPBS. This can happen when
1. You have forgotten to take medicines on the previous day of test
2. There is an increased hepatic glucose output.
If it is reason number 2 you will benefit better with increasing the dosage of metformin...
All your other tablets are safe in the preview of Diabetes.
Hope i have answered your query
