Patient's Query

Hi doctor,

I am diabetic for past four years. I am taking Tablet Glynase MF for diabetes. My FBS is 200 mg/dL, PPBS is 300 mg/dL and Hba1c is 8 %. Kindly provide proper drug and diet for managing blood sugar.

Hi,

Welcome to icliniq.com.

Follow the diabetic diet and exercise daily for at least 30 minutes. Here is a sample diet to help you understand the diet. Early morning: Green tea (sugarless), Breakfast: Nonfried preparations or whole wheat bread or vegetable poha, upma, idli sambhar. Mid-morning: Fruits (avoid carbohydrate-rich fruits like grapes, banana, custard apple and watermelon). Lunch: Two roti with gravy, one bowl with dal or skimmed curd or one bowl with salad. Evening snacks: Tea or Coffee (sugarless) with high fiber biscuits or Sprouts in one bowl. Dinner: Two chapattis with vegetable, or one glass of skimmed buttermilk or salad in one bowl. Continue your ongoing treatment and also take tablet Volibo 0.2 mg (Voglibose) twice a day before lunch and dinner for seven days. Follow up after seven days with your fasting and postprandial blood sugar levels.

Same symptoms don't mean you have the same problem. Consult a doctor now!
