My wife just discovered she has sugar problems. It was found by her Dr.'s lab test to be 450 . She has all the symptons for high sugar in her blood. Dr. prescribed Glimepiride. her liver emzimes are high. He appeared alarmed. She is scared of the listed side effects.
Glimepiride - It has lots of side effects listed. Is it safe?

Glimepiride is definitely safe but as with any medicine some people may experience some side effects.
You (or your wife) and her doctor must be vigilant. If she does have any side effects she can easily be prescribed another medicine for diabetes
