DiaBeta (glyburide)

My Rating

Sometimes it works a little too much. Sometimes I take a half. Depend on what I eat. I have to start eating more, I guess.

Cons

It works for me.

My Rating

I took Glyburide for a few years, and was recently taken off of it since I am now on insulin.

To be fair, it worked for me a little bit when I first started taking it, but eventually stopped working.

Pros

If you are newly diagnosed type 2 who still has some pancreatic function and low insulin resistance, Glyburide will probably work well for you.

Cons

If you have decreased pancreatic function and high insulin resistance (like I do), Glyburide may not be as effective for you.

My Rating

I take glyburide along with byetta and Lantus. Glyburide does work, but it is wishy washy. One minute your sugar can be great, then all the sudden it can drop. It that can be quite scary.

Pros

Can lower sugar

Cons

Can lower sugar too much.

My Rating

I have been on glyburide 4 pills a day forever it seem like. I also take metformin and Januvia.

Pros

This seems to work for me sometimes I only have to take 2 pills a day depending on my blood gloucose level.

Cons

I don't like taking so many pills.

My Rating

This medicine did not seem to work well for me. I was not on it very long
