A member asked:

Can rosiglitazone, sitagliptin and metformin be given together to an elderly patient?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Many meds: The simple answer is Yes but it might be more simple to give an injection of long acting insulin at bedtime. It works well and over a few days it will get rid of any concerns.
