1925135 tn?1323307656 When I was diagnosed with type 2 diabetes I went through several medications before I found 1 that fit me - I am a non insulin dependent diabetic .
Avatar n tn my doctor wants me to change my medicine(from glyburide to methamorphin)is that mean that my diabetes is getting worst?I told them that I'm ok with glyburide because I'm using it for 8years now and I didn't see any bad effects on me.Can you please give me more helpful ideas?
Avatar f tn All my results have been under 120 for the 1st week and now my Dr said I need to take 5mg of Glyburide daily. I read alot of negative things about Glyburide during pregnancy so I told my Dr I would not take it. Now she says I will need to be on Insulin. Does anyone know if Glyburide or Insulin are appropriate if your glucose results are all under 120? I thought medication for gestational diabetes should only be given if the results are very high but again I'm not sure.
183933 tn?1290216962 They feel this is more dangerous than unknown possible risks from glyburide. I have read that glyburide is considered very safe in the 2nd and 3rd trimesters but there has never been any study of the drug in pg women that I could find. If it makes you feel better, go ahead and ask your surrogate if she would switch to insulin at least for a month or two. That will give the babies time to finish all of those early developments that can be so sensitive.
Avatar n tn what is the worst that could happen to me IF IM NOT BIABETIC and ive taken the drug Glyburide-Metformin Oral? im experiencing cold sweats blurred vision and hunger. Is this an emergency? i took it aronund ten hours ago and now im still feeling the side effects. will this go away and is my blood sugar permanently damaged? im 27 history of common allergies and no allergies to drugs. i take adderall for adhd. what should i do?
Avatar f tn My levels can increase 25 to 100 points after taking my medication (GLUCOVANCE) whether I eat or not. Earlier today I ate a meal which included a lot of carbs. I checked my blood sugar before and after. My blood sugar level dropped 50 points. I know that weaning off of cymbalta causes a myriad of side effects with brain zaps being the worst. I have researched to see if there is a link between coming off of cymbalta and this problem with my blood sugar.
Avatar n tn is glipizide 10mg the same as glyburide 5mg / because my husband was drinking the gyburide and when we went for the new prescription it had changed to glipizide and he hasn't felt good since the change do i call his doctor
Avatar f tn I eat balanced meals low carb high protein and I take 2.5mg of glyburide at night and my sugar is under control. Diet is really important. Some people have to take insulin.
604185 tn?1233960857 I was diagnosed with gestational diabetes and was on diet for a week. But the glucose level don't seem to fall in the normal range. So doctor put me on glyburide, that I have to start tonight. My concern is is that going cause any problem to my baby??? Has anyone used this medicine in pregnancy? Please advice.
Avatar n tn I just came back from my dietician who prescribed glyburide 1.25mg at bedtime because my fasting numbers have always been between 93-96 and my a1c came back 1 point higher then at the beginning of my pregnancy. Im 29 weeks along and im just double thinking on taking any meds. Have any of you had complications while on it? Did you deliver a healthy baby? This is my first time dealing with gestational diebetes. Any insight will be appreciated.
Avatar m tn MY A1C was 11.2 in April 2019 by June 2019 it was 9.8. while only taking Glyburide So my doctor added Metformin. Three months later my A1C was 10.6. and two months after that it was 11.5. Stop taking the Metformin and now it's 10.2. this is three months later. I'm trying to figure out why this happen. When I ask my Doctor they are surprised, but had no answer for but want to change my medicine again.
Avatar f tn I am a 36 yr old type 2 diabetic, w/chronic hypertension and overweight. Just lost my 2nd baby at 22 wks. This baby stopped growing@17 wks. I lost my first baby as well at 22wks at age 30. 1st pregnancy loss was due to pre-eclampsia which caused placenta to stop functioning at 20wks. 2nd pregnancy bled from 6 wks to 18wks off and on. No cause ever given for the bleeding. Midwife always stated that cervix was closed and tight, baby was fine and stop having sex.
Avatar m tn It goes away In like a week. With me it affected my stomach real bad. Your body has to get used to it.
Avatar m tn i take four pills two times day of glyburide-metgormin plud latus 22 units good morning one day not next good numbers at dinnere,supper why
Avatar n tn This is my first time posting a question so bear with me. I'm a 24 y/o F who has been trying to get pregnant since last April. I have very irregular and missed periods so my Dr. put me on 10 days of Prometrium. I had few side effects, fatigue, dizziness and some nausea. After the 10 days on the pill I am supposed to get my period and on day 3 of normal mentration return to the clinic for lab work to diagnose polycystic ovaries. It's been 7 days and no period yet.
Avatar f tn Is anybody here taking glyburide medicine while pregnant? I went to my appt this morning my OBGYN Dr is away for 2 weeks and she'll be back on dec 15.. The OBGYN that I saw this morning prescribe me medicine glyburide for gestation diabetes he said it's safe for pregnant woman to take it but my OBGYN told me the only safe medicine that I can take is insulin specially that I'm a high risk, I had 2 miscarriage in the past and I'm really scared and don't know what to do...
624083 tn?1369314263 t seem to get my fasting sugar level in the morning to be under 90 where they want me to be. So they jumped to put me on Glyburide 2.5 mg and I'm scared to death to take it, I'm scared it's not safe for the baby, because what I'm reading online is telling me it hasn't been tested to determine if it's safe. And I'm also worried that it could seriously drop my blood sugars.
183933 tn?1290216962 So they did not put her on medication yet, but will probably have to go on something later on in the pregnancy. Is that a good sign that her average over the last few months was only slightly over?
Avatar f tn I failed my three hour and they had me on a diet and checking my blood sugar 4x a day. Plus I see a perinatalogist to checkon baby and make sure he's growing right. The diet didn't work for me like they wanted it to so I was put on glyburide twice a day. It's nothing to worry about really. It's just a pain to check your sugars all the time and not being able to give in to cravings is hard sometimes.
Avatar f tn My fetal specialist is putting me on glyburide for my fasting sugars being to high! Has anyone else had to take this an everything was OK with the baby????
