glizid M is an unscientific combination., a pharmacompanys gimmick

switch over to glimiperide2mg(REddys,sunpharma,reliable) taken half hour before breakfast for the liver to respond and follow with 500mg of plain metformin,(avoid sustained release form)and repeat for dinner and see the change.

glimipride and pioglitazone are dangerous drugs. I stopped both and now only taking metformin just by following LCHF Diet. This metformin is very safe diabetes drug. it is your choice.

Apart from brittle bones, pioglitazone has a few other dangerous side effects for some.

One way to see if pioglitazone is having an adverse effect, is to observe one's feet over a period of time. If you find swelling ( this is not simple swelling, it signifies repercussions on the heart ), inform your doctor immediately & discontinue pioglitazone & then check if the swelling starts reducing & then vanishes.

Thanks
