Blood sugar reading after eating

I am a female of 54 years age. Diagnosed as prediabetic last year and prescribed glycomet 850 XR once daily. My latest hba1c is 5.8. Most of the times blood glucose readings are in normal range. However sometimes morning fasting sugar is above 108 and even 2 hours post dinner reading are sometimes above 140mg/dl. Do I need to change medicine dose?
