Hi all,

I have Type 2 Diabetes - well controlled (Diet, 1000mg Metformin daily, last HbA1C was 5.4). I am about to start IVF and a drug called Suprecur. I've read loads about the risk of this medication with diabetes - clinic happy as HbA1C undercontrol and Diabetes Nurse is coming back to me. However, I was wondering if anyone on here has used this medication and has T2 Diabetes?

I've also posted this is in T2 forum section - wasn't sure where it belongs.

Thanks,

Mags :D

Hi Mags

Sorry you have had no reply to date. The only information I can find is that Suprecur and enhance the effect of some diabetic medications. I suspect that you will not have problems with metformin as it is not a drug that usually causes hypos, but the generic advice appears to be to test your blood sugars regularly. Hopefully your DN will have put your mind at rest already.

Good luck

Doug
