My current HbA1c is 6.8%, and I stopped taking Metformin 500 mg twice daily two years ago. I am currently taking Amlong 5 mg, Rozustat 10 mg, and Vitamin D supplements, while maintaining a healthy diet and regular walks. Do I need to restart Metformin or add any other medication to manage my blood sugar levels?
Your HbA1c of 6.8% indicates mildly elevated blood sugar. While your healthy diet and walks are excellent, your current level is slightly above the ideal target. There is no need to panic, as this is a highly manageable range. However, restarting metformin may be beneficial to help optimize your blood sugar control and protect your long-term health, especially since you are already managing your blood pressure with amlodipine and cholesterol with rosuvastatin. I highly recommend consulting your physician to discuss safely restarting metformin or adjusting your treatment plan based on your overall health goals.
