I am having sugar since last 30 years . now taking huminsulin 30/70 morning and evening and voglidase m morning. after food reading (PPBS) shows 100+ than fasting. what are the latest medicines for diabetics of this kind. I am 60+

Ans: There are several new medications for diabetes which can control post meal sugars as well as overall sugars with the added benefit of heart and kidney protection. It is best you see your physician/ diabetes doctor and have a detailed discussion about them. Examples of such medications are what are called: SGLT2 inhibitors and GLP1 agonists, DPP4 inhibitors. You can ask your doctor about these and if any of them would be better for you than what you are on currently.
