My fasting blood sugar is 190 mg/dL, and post-meal blood sugar is 273 mg/dL despite taking one tablet of Glimestar M1 in the morning. Should I change my medicine or adjust the dosage?
Your blood sugar levels (fasting at 190 mg/dL and post-meal at 273 mg/dL) are currently higher than the target range. Your medication is a combination of glimepiride and metformin. Please do not adjust the dosage or change your medicine on your own, as this requires professional evaluation. I recommend consulting your prescribing doctor. They may decide to safely increase the dosage of your current generic medication, split the dose, or introduce an additional treatment. Continue taking your medicine as prescribed for now, monitor your levels daily, focus on a low-glycemic diet, and schedule an appointment with your doctor soon to get your regimen safely adjusted.
