[QUOTE="achike, post: 1354987, member: 73407"] To xyzzy. I hope that you have good evidence to pass on to NICE on Januvia that you are recommending. I only elaborated on the fear of Gliclazide burning out the pancreas. All medicines have side effects but before approved for public use the benefits should outweigh them. I have a T2 diabetes for 20 years and Metformin that I combine with Gliclazide has put me on good control with moderate exercise. I am not on low carbohydrate diet but limit the portion of my foods which are loaded with vegetables, fruits and nuts but low oil or fats. My opinions on this forum are based on my experience as a medical doctor since 1978. Though am now retired, I was a practicing GP in Nigeria before I specialised as a pathologist in England. I post my opinions based on research and Best Practice. Please feel free to take or ignore them with best wishes.
