i think at thus level you may take take glycomate 500 which is metformin with gp1 the best for two times at morning before breakfast and lunch.youe result in 1 month will be 6.pl consult the docter on this line.

I have been taking for the past 1 yr, have gained weight because of my desk job and too much stress and no time to exercise. I hope to change all this soon :)

Thanks Dr, actually the dr. I am seeing did not even consider A1c test as of any importance, since he did not suggest the test I guess and did not change any of my meds. I am also taking Tazloc 20 mg 1 qd and Metadoze IPR 500 hs qd. I am cutting down on the quantitiy of food but not able to consistently stick with exercise. thank you for the messages.
