"Switched to this combo from Glyburide/Metformin 5/500 4Xday after warning by Humana re Glyburide causing glucose to go too low, <50.. Still have fasting glucose about 160, same as with Glyburide most of the time. Last HbA1C was 6.7. Doc switched me to expensive Trulicity which didn't seem to do much better but caused bad side effects. See that posting for more info."
