Hi, Hope you are doing well. Ideally you do not need medicines for pre diabetes. You should explore the idea of a calorie restricted diet and regular for control and possible reversal. However, if you have been diagnosed with diabetes and this is a state of good control- good job. Do consult if you have any queries.
