Is It Concerning To Receive Two Courses Of Dexona And Betamethasone During Borderline Gestational Diabetes While On Metformin?
Hello doctor, I have been diagnosed with borderline gestational diabetes. Taking metformin 500 twice a day and monitoring glucose levels at home which is coming fasting 110 around and post meal 140 around. I was given dexona on 23rd and 24th February and betamethasone injections on 9th and 10th March ( in the gap of 13 days). While injections metformin dose was increased for 3 days. Is it worrisome that in my condition two courses of steroids were given?
