I've been managing my diabetes and lately, I've noticed that my fasting glucose levels are at 111. My recent tests also showed SGOT at 45 and SGPT at 55. Can I take Liv52 to help with this, or is there something else you would recommend? I'm a bit concerned about these numbers and would really appreciate some advice.

Puberty typically starts between ages 10 and 14 for girls and 12 to 16 for boys, during which growth and physical changes occur.

I'm really worried about my dad. He's been switched from Glycomet 1 Forte to Galvus Met 50500 because he was having some gastric issues. Is Galvus Met effective in controlling diabetes? Are there any side effects we should be aware of? I'm just trying to make sure we're making the right decision for his health. Can you help shed some light on this?

Galvus Met 50500, containing vildagliptin and metformin, is a commonly prescribed oral anti-diabetic medication that can effectively control blood sugar levels; however, potential side effects include headache, dizziness, and gastrointestinal issues, such as diarrhea or nausea, although these are generally mild and temporary; since your father experienced gastric issues with Glycomet, monitor his response to Galvus Met and report any concerns
