Greeting all
I have recently been diagnosed with Type 2 and a reading of 7.9% (A!c level of 63mmol/mol) over a few months of readings (Nov and then Jun) plus an slightly high cholesterol reading so what I am looking for is guidance on medication. I was originally offered Metformin and then through discussion we agreed on Metformin SR, however, a friend as been on both and had bowl issues and so suggested Gliclazide which is her drug.
About me: weight is slightly over but GP not worried, regular walking of dog and weekly bike rides and with a healthy diet with a little naughtiness - gotta live a little.
What meds would be the best for me?
Thanks in advance
