Even after taking one tablet of glyciphase containing metformin if the reading continues at above 200 I think you should take additional tablet not glyciphase itself you should take on doctor's advice another like Trivolib 2 combination glimepiride, voglibose and metformin.

Hello, Patty! How are you?

You need to speak to your doctor about this issue. If your current dosage isn't controlling your blood sugar throughout the day, you may need a dosage adjustment, a time released formulation of the medication, or a different medication altogether.

Do you watch what you eat to keep your diet low in fats and sugar?
