My blood sugar level is between 160 and 190 mg/dL. What medication should I take to control it?

Asked by Female, 52 · 5 days ago

A blood sugar level between 160 and 190 mg/dL is elevated, but there is no need to panic. These numbers indicate mild hyperglycemia, which can be safely managed. Medication choice depends on whether these readings are fasting or after meals, your medical history, and kidney health. Doctors often start with metformin, a common and safe first-line generic medication, alongside lifestyle changes. Please do not start any medication without a professional evaluation. I recommend consulting your doctor, who will likely run an HbA1c test to determine the best treatment plan for you. Meanwhile, stay hydrated, choose low-carb meals, and try taking short walks after eating.
