Dear vaithivenkat,
your doctor has done nothing but precribed you the same medicines in form of combination....
i am quite skeptical about you taking gemer at lunch.
was it prescribed at lunch or breakfast?
was your paterrn of eating changed recently?
did you attend any party/function recently?
how much is your hba1c(average 3 months blood glucose)?
try doing this
t.trivolib 2mg (half hour before breakfast and dinner)
t.januvia100mg(just before lunch)
let us know whats your sugar reading after these changes have been made....\
