Diabetes medication

My father is on Istamet DXR - 500 but recently his blood sugars have peaked and hba1c is 7. So doctor has suggested additional dosage of vildagliptin 50 in the night. I wanted second opinion on this. If two different gliptins are not recommended, and  if Istamet d alone is not sufficient then what are the options? Kindly suggest.
