[QUOTE="Daibell, post: 252154, member: 21149"] Hi. I had Gliclazide added to Metformin and even on max dose it doesn't help me much as my pancreas appears to be knackered. Glic can be very helpful, however, if you have a responsive pancreas. When I had Januvia (sitagliptin) added it made quite a difference to my spikes and is less aggressive in the way that it works compared with Glicazide; it stops an ezyme shutting off the pancreas too early. Yes, Sitagliptin is relatively expensive but appears to get results for many people. I would be wary of the glitazones as they can cause water collection and affect the heart. [/QUOTE]
