Hi
-If she forgets before food she can take with food or immediately after that
Voglibose is for her post lunch sugar control
Thats why her post lunch sugar is high
Let her take voglibose regularly to control the post lunch sugar
-Also the way of testing sugar is also important
- And how is her diet control?
Diet control is most important
How is her physical activity?
Body weight?
