Blood sugar reading
My father takes 2 sugar tablets, one in the morning another after lunch. 3 days Readings at night and morning
141(night)- - - 116(morning)
155(night )- - -114 (morning)
171(night) - - - 95 (morning)
Why is there a huge drop in sugar levels when he is not taking any tablets at night...kinda concerned???
Morning tablet- vildamiz mf
Lunch tablets - dapagliflozin tablets 5 mg
Is it because of the medicine?? I read metformin remains in the body for 4 days???
