It can sometimes take a few weeks for a new regimen like Glycomet GP (metformin and glimepiride) to fully stabilize your levels. I recommend keeping a daily log of these fasting and after-meal readings for the next few days. Please share this log with your doctor, as they may need to gently adjust your dosage or discuss your daily diet and activity.

Based on my kidney blood test (creatinine) result of 1.80, do I have chronic kidney disease, considering I am a 63-year-old vegetarian who does not drink alcohol, has had high blood pressure (currently 160/90) for 20 years, and has type 2 diabetes controlled with Amaryl?

his result suggests your kidneys are working a bit harder than usual. Given your history of diabetes and blood pressure of 160/90, it is possible your kidneys have experienced some stress over time. However, a single test doesn't confirm chronic kidney disease. We will need to repeat the blood test and check your urine. For now, continuing to manage your diabetes?currently controlled with Amaryl?and working with your doctor to gently lower your blood pressure are the best steps to protect your kidneys. Please share these results with your doctor soon.

I am taking Amaryl M 1 mg, and my fasting sugar level is 120. Should I take this medicine before meals or after meals?

Amaryl M is usually taken along with a main meal, not on an empty stomach. Taking it with food helps reduce the risk of low blood sugar and stomach upset. A fasting level of 120 is slightly higher than ideal and should be monitored regularly. Follow your doctor?s advice on timing and do not adjust the dose on your own.

I have diabetes and high blood pressure, and I am taking ramipres 5 and Amaryl M 1 mg. Are these medicines enough, or do I need any changes to control my sugar levels?

Ramipres 5 helps control blood pressure, and Amaryl M 1 mg is used to manage blood sugar. Whether they are enough depends on your current sugar readings, HbA1c levels, and overall health. Good control also requires balanced meals, portion control, and regular physical activity. Review your recent reports with your doctor to decide whether any changes to treatment are needed.
