I am taking Galvus Met 50/500 once daily along with Huminsulin 30/70 insulin (36 units in the morning and 16 units at night). Despite this treatment, my blood sugar levels are around 230 mg/dL. What should I do to bring my blood sugar level back into the normal range?

Your blood sugar level of 230 mg/dL suggests that your diabetes is not fully under control, even though you are taking Galvus Met and Huminsulin 30/70 regularly. Several factors can cause high sugar levels, including an incorrect insulin dose, irregular meal timing, eating excess rice, sweets, or fried foods, lack of exercise, stress, infections, or missed medicines. Do not change your insulin dose on your own. You should consult your doctor to review your treatment plan. Your doctor may need to adjust the insulin dose, change the timing, or add other medicines after checking your fasting and post-meal blood sugar levels and your HbA1c. Follow a strict diabetic diet with smaller meals, more vegetables, whole grains, and less sugary or oily food. Daily walking for 30 to 45 minutes can also help improve insulin action. Check your blood sugar regularly and maintain a record. Seek medical attention immediately if you develop excessive thirst, vomiting, frequent urination, weight loss, or weakness, as these may indicate very high blood sugar requiring urgent treatment.
