I am a diabetic patient and have been advised to take Gluconorm G1 in the morning and at night, and Zita Plus at noon. However, whenever I take Gluconorm, I experience stomach upset and gas problems. I have tried taking antacids, but there is no improvement. What could be the reason for this, and do I need to change my medication?

Have a query?
