Q.

#AskTheExpert Hi doctor, I am in my 6th month and my fasting blood sugars are high (95-100). Post meals they are in control. I am taking Metformin hydrochloride 500 mg twice a day (after lunch and after dinner). How can I get fasting blood sugar as well in control? Is it good to switch to Insulin?
