Why my sugar level is high after taking insulin?
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
There are many reasons for having high sugar level after taking insulin such as insulin resistance, inappropriate dose of insulin, taking insulin at same site (that area may scar, which can affect how your body absorbs insulin) and dehydration.

View allI'm really concerned about my mother's health. She's 57 and we just found out she has diabetes about a week ago. We've been monitoring her levels and today her sugar level hit 340 randomly. She's been on medication for three days now. Do you think we should consult the doctor again to discuss her treatment plan?
yes

I'm 26 years old and have been dealing with gynaecomastia since 2012. I tried some homeopathic remedies like Reckweg R19, R41, and Testis Siccati on the advice of a homeopath, but they didnt help. I also have a sparse beard, although all my other male features seem normal. Can you offer any advice or treatment options?

I've been diagnosed with diabetes since I was 25 and have been managing it with insulin. Recently, I came across something called IME9 TABLETS on TV, which is described as an Ayurvedic wonder drug for diabetes and is supposedly approved by the government of India. Is this a legitimate medicine? Has it really been proven to help control blood glucose levels? And most importantly, is it safe to use? What's the deal with this?
IME-9 Tablets are a combination of Ayurvedic herbs and minerals that are marketed for diabetes management. However, as a medical doctor, I would recommend sticking to the insulin therapy prescribed by your healthcare provider for managing your diabetes. Insulin is a proven and effective treatment for diabetes, especially in younger individuals like yourself. While IME-9 Tablets may be approved by the government of India, the efficacy and safety of these tablets in controlling blood glucose levels may not be well-established compared to insulin therapy. It is important to consult with your healthcare provider before making any changes to your treatment plan.
