Effective management of type 2 diabetes involves several key lifestyle measures. Eat high-fibre foods such as whole grains, vegetables, and legumes, while limiting refined sugars, processed foods, and saturated fats. Engage in regular physical activity, maintain a healthy body weight, and avoid smoking and alcohol consumption. Regular monitoring of blood glucose and adherence to prescribed medication are also essential to prevent long-term complications.

Type 2 diabetes mellitus significantly increases the risk of developing ischaemic heart disease because high blood glucose damages blood vessels and speeds up atherosclerosis (narrowing of blood vessels due to fatty deposits). People with diabetes often have additional risk factors, such as high blood pressure and abnormal cholesterol levels. Controlling blood sugar, blood pressure, and cholesterol can help reduce the risk of heart disease.

Your postprandial glucose is higher than the recommended target (below 140 mg/dL) despite your current medication. Do not adjust the dose on your own, as this may cause hypoglycaemia (low blood sugar) or other complications. Consult your doctor, who may consider increasing the dose, adding another oral antidiabetic medicine, or starting insulin if necessary. Meanwhile, continue a balanced diet, regular physical activity, and careful blood glucose monitoring to help improve control.

Feeling drowsy while taking Diapride M1 Forte Tablet (Glimepiride and Metformin) may indicate low blood sugar (hypoglycaemia) or a side effect of the medication. You should monitor your blood glucose levels regularly and avoid driving or operating machinery until your symptoms improve. Please consult your doctor promptly, as they may need to adjust your dose or consider alternative medications to manage your diabetes safely.

Excessive thirst in type 2 diabetes (polydipsia) may indicate high blood sugar levels. You can manage it by regularly monitoring your blood glucose, staying well hydrated with water, and following your doctor?s advice regarding diet and medication. Consult your doctor if thirst persists or worsens.

Ayurvedic medicine may help support blood sugar control, but it cannot replace conventional treatment. Effective management requires regular monitoring of blood glucose, a balanced diet, physical activity, and prescribed medications. Always consult your doctor before making any changes to your treatment.

Diapride M1 Forte Tablet contains Glimepiride and Metformin, which work together to lower blood sugar by increasing insulin secretion and improving the body?s response to insulin.

Always consult your doctor before switching, as the dose and treatment plan may need adjustment.

A fasting blood sugar of 200 mg/dL is higher than the recommended level for people with type 2 diabetes. In addition to your current routine, follow a balanced diet low in carbohydrates and sugars, maintain regular physical activity, monitor your blood sugar frequently, and maintain a healthy weight. Consult your doctor, as your medication dose may need adjustment or an additional medicine may be required to achieve better control.
