Generally, it ls accepted that for effective diabetes management,diet plays an important role to the extent of 50% of overall efforts.You have not indicated anything about what you eat,how much and when.50 point spike in BS level after breakfast is also significant.So,please elaborate on these issues.
Vildagliptin has been shown to reduce hyperglycemia in type 2 diabetes mellitus. This drug is a risk factor for pancreatic cancer.
Metformin is used alone or with other medications, including insulin, to treat type 2 diabetes (condition in which the body does not use insulin normally and, therefore, cannot control the amount of sugar in the blood). Metformin is in a class of drugs called biguanides. Metformin helps to control the amount of glucose (sugar) in your blood. It decreases the amount of glucose you absorb from your food and the amount of glucose made by your liver. Metformin also increases your body's response to insulin, a natural substance that controls the amount of glucose in the blood.
Do not consume food after sunset.
