Type 2 Diabetes can be satisfactorily controlled with oral antidiabetic drugs. In your mother’s case also, if she had not stopped the previous medicine, it might have been well controlled. Both her fasting and postprandial sugars are in the elevated range. She cannot continue the same medicine at this level of sugar and HbA1c and must consult a diabetologist. Also, she must regularly monitor his HbA1c as it is a bit on the higher side. If the fasting sugars before breakfast still remain more than 150, then her medicines definitely need to be adjusted by a diabetologist. Also, an antidiabetic diet is mandatory for effective blood sugar control, with physical exercise is needed. She can get a custom diet plan from a professional to control her sugar better.
