Your doctor probably needs to change the type or dosage of insulin you take because your blood sugar levels are high despite taking it. Galpride G2 might not be enough on its own; another oral medication or insulin during meals might be required. Please visit your diabetic physician as soon as possible, adhere to a rigorous diet, and monitor your blood sugar levels.

  1. Review of Current Diabetes Management

    • Your current regimen includes insulin and oral medications (Voglibose and Galpride G2). These aim to control blood sugar levels.

  2. Assessment of Blood Sugar Levels

    • Fasting blood sugar at 200 mg/dL and postprandial at 264 mg/dL indicate suboptimal control.

  3. Possible Reasons for Poor Control

    • Consider medication effectiveness, dosing, timing, diet, physical activity, and potential insulin resistance.

  4. Recommendations for Next Steps

    • Consult an endocrinologist for medication adjustment.
    • Possible changes: insulin dose adjustment, adding/switching oral agents, or newer medications.
    • Emphasize lifestyle modifications: diet, exercise, and regular monitoring.

  5. Importance of Regular Monitoring and Follow-up

    • Regular blood sugar monitoring and follow-up visits are crucial for effective treatment adjustments.

  6. When to Seek Immediate Medical Attention

    • Watch for very high blood sugars, symptoms of ketoacidosis, or hypoglycemia.

  7. Support and Education

    • Engage in patient education on diabetes management and adherence to therapy for improved outcomes.
