Hello doctor I have just got my random blood sugar test done and the range is very high 375. My HBA1C levels are currently at 8.9. I just had c section delivery 3 months back and did not have any high blood sugar issues then. I do not want to take in insulin. What medicines can i take safely to reduce blood sugar while breastfeeding?
