hi, I had gone through your query and understood your concerns.

The sugar levels you have mentioned are higher than normal. when such thing happens like after a time when the levels become uncontrolled with the present drug, either the dose is increased or a new drug is added to the present drug. Now the addition of new drug voglibose is such a thing. It adds the antidiabetic effect. so, you need not worry. It works and safe.

Hope this guides you. For any other queries you can write to us. we will be happy to help you. Thank you.
