Can I take Wikoryl 10 tablet with diabetes and hypothyroidism?
These are common symptoms from a viral infection, such as a high temperature, cough, and nasal congestion. While Wikoryl can help alleviate these issues, it’s crucial to consider your conditions of diabetes and hypothyroidism. Some ingredients in medications may affect blood sugar levels or interact with your thyroid medications. Therefore, I recommend consulting your doctor before starting any new medication. They can provide personalized advice and ensure you find safe, effective relief while managing your overall health.

What to do if grandmother takes double Glimpride dose?
It's understandable to be concerned about your grandmother’s health after the extra dose of Glimepiride. Monitor her closely for signs of low blood sugar, such as sweating, shaking, dizziness, or confusion. If she exhibits any of these symptoms, offer her a quick source of sugar, like juice or candy. Ensure she stays hydrated and has regular meals. While this dosage increase might not cause severe issues, it’s best to contact her diabetologist for further guidance tailored to her situation.

Why does my sugar spike to 170 while taking diabetes tablets for 15 years?
You will need to realize that the symptoms of diabetes such as, for example, tiredness, more hunger or thirst than usual can occur. If your sugar level is 170, then your blood sugar control is not right. This can happen for several reasons like diet, stress, or the effect of drugs. Monitoring your food and exercising are very important. This will help to improve your condition. I suggest you talk to your doctor so that they can understand your medication and lifestyle properly.

Is blood sugar level of 140 post meal normal?
Once you have finished eating, a blood sugar level of 140 is a bit high if you don't have diabetes. It hints you may develop diabetes later on. Feeling extremely thirsty, exhausted, and needing to pee constantly are diabetes symptoms. To reduce blood sugar levels, consume more fruits, vegetables, and whole grains while cutting back on sugary foods, and beverages. Exercising frequently can also help keep sugar levels in check.
