View allI've been taking Teneligliptin 20 mg daily along with Mixtard insulin for the last three weeks, and it seems to be helping with controlling the variations in my readings throughout the day. But I'm a bit concerned because I've heard about possible side effects, especially since I have a heart condition. On top of that, I recently found out my Vitamin D levels are low, so I'm taking DRetcal 60k once a week. Do you think Teneligliptin and the Vitamin D supplement will work together to help manage my diabetes better? My HbA1C is around 9, and I've been dealing with diabetes for quite a while now. Is there anything specific I should watch out for?

I was diagnosed with Type 2 diabetes in March 2021 and was initially prescribed RemoV tablets twice a day, which have remogliflozin etabonate 100mg and vildagliptin 50mg. My recent hba1c is 6.8 and fasting sugar is 139. During my sinus surgery, the doctor advised me to stop RemoV and switch to Glyciphage 500mg (metformin only). Now, my current doctor is suggesting RemoMV, which combines remogliflozin, vildagliptin, and metformin. I'm confused about which one is better for me and why RemoMV is being recommended over the other options. Can you explain the difference and what would work best for my condition?
