I've been prescribed Grilinctus for my Covid symptoms, but I'm also dealing with blood sugar issues. Should I be concerned about taking Grilinctus in my situation? Is it safe for someone managing blood sugar levels?

I'm a 34-year-old male, and I recently checked my random blood sugar level, which came out to be 153. Should I be worried about this? What does it mean for my health?
A random blood sugar level of 153 mgdL is considered elevated, but not necessarily indicative of diabetes; however, it's a red flag, especially for someone as young as 34, and warrants further evaluation, such as a fasting blood sugar test, HbA1c, or an oral glucose tolerance test, to determine if you're at risk for developing insulin resistance, prediabetes, or type 2 diabetes
