Can antibiotics(clavam 625 + sinarest for 4 days) and laxatives(magnesium= triphala powder for 4 days ) lower blood fasting glucose results and hb1ac?

Clavam tablets are used for the short term treatment of wide range of infections caused by bacteria. These infections may affect the chest (bronchitis or pneumonia), bladder (cystitis), sinuses (sinusitis), the ears (otitis media) or the skin. Clavam tablets work by killing the bacteria that cause these infections.

Clavam contains Amoxycillin (500 mg) + Clavulanic Acid (125 mg). Antibiotics will not lower your blood sugar levels.

Magnesium is a nutrient that the body needs to stay healthy. Magnesium is important for many processes in the body, including regulating muscle and nerve function, blood sugar levels, and blood pressure and making protein, bone, and DNA.

Higher dietary intakes of magnesium correspond to lower diabetes incidence. For people with diabetes or at high risk of diabetes, magnesium supplementation lowers fasting glucose.

But can 5 days high dosage of magnesium (500- 750 mg a day ) or triphala affect hb1ac tests results? I am really surprised today the glucometer showed 106 venous blood, 99 finger blood, lab test 91, hb1ac 5.2 . (let me repeat iam not diabetic as per assessment of docs of all lab reports for more than a year and even in past few years ago ) I got hb1ac from another lab to see if it matched with dr lal path lab and it did, exactly the same. The only thing is , it is first time that i see glucomete showing 99 reding when lab showed 91. otherwise in other labs it's usually lab 94 to 99 to 103 ( rarely 111) and glucometer 119, 122 . Really confused, and the reason i check it is because the swee ttaste in teeth doesn't go away, doctors say it is nit due to glucose but perhaps maybe digestive issues, acid reflux or maybe some mineral issue( doing my own connecting the dots homework to be honest)

Thank you
