Metformin and vilcure

2023-01-28 11:46:08
Hi When I was diagnosed with sugar my HBA1C was around 13. With metformin 850 mg in the morning and evening after food and vilcure 50 before food in the morning and evening, my levels have come down to 7. Can I take metformin 500 mg now and stop taking vilcure. Kindly advise. Thanks
