My dad was recently diagnosed with diabetes and I came across something called IME 9. I'm wondering if it's meant just for type 2 diabetes or if anyone with diabetes can use it? Also, how do we get it? Any advice would be really appreciated.

I'm a bit concerned because after taking Dulcoflex tablets, I've noticed that I'm urinating a lot more throughout the day and I'm also experiencing some weight loss. Could you help me figure out what's going on and suggest an alternative or a better approach?
I recommend you stop taking it. Instead, you can try using Senokot tablets. Take 1-2 tablets at bedtime as needed for constipation. Make sure to drink plenty of water throughout the day. If you continue to experience high urine output and weight loss, please consult with your healthcare provider for further evaluation.
