Diabetes, Type 2
"I have been diabetic for 5 years and recently came off insulin to try Onglyza and have been on it for 8 days. On insulin my fasting was on average 120 but have not been able to get my fasting below 175 on this medicine. I still take metformin and would like to see if this works and not go back on insulin.  I have noticed  I have less appetite on Onglyza and have lost 2 pounds and have not had any other side effects.  I am hoping the medicine just needs to build up in my system.  Any suggestions  to bring down my fasting number would be appreciated."
