Diabetes issues
I'm a diabetic person for 20 years. Currently taking the following oral medicines. Morning: DiamicronXR60-1/2, Volix 0.3 mg-1, Galvus met-1000 mg-1 Night: DiamicronXR60-1, Galvus met-1000 mg-1.Also have tablets for BP and Cholesterol. My question is:Are these medicines are correctly prescribed? How safe are the above said medicines if taken regularly? My sugar levels are fairly under control. Is it better to shift to insulin? Please advice.
