I visited the doctor who asked for these test and given diamicron xt 30/500 at night and empaone sm contains metformin 1000 stigliptin 100 and empagliflozin 10 in morning. So I request to kindly guide should I take previous medicine or the current which doctor suggested. Thanks and looking for you quick response

Since your hba1c was in control, there was no need for changing medications. Plus all the new medications have same mechanism of action, except for diamicron ( which is more potent and is mostly not required also) I would suggest continue the same medications.
