Yes, a diabetic can generally take turmeric while on metformin, as turmeric is known for its potential anti-inflammatory and blood sugar-lowering properties. However, it's essential to consult with a healthcare provider before adding any supplement to ensure it doesn't interfere with medications or overall health. Additionally, while turmeric may offer benefits, it should not replace prescribed Diabetes management strategies.

Is it right to take oral antidiabetic drugs like metformin if you are taking lantus?

Lantus is a insulin injection & is used to lower blood sugar levels. Metformin is tablet medication which is also used to lower blood sugar levels. Taking Lantus & Metformin in conjunction should be done hesitantly & with your Diabetic Doctors approval as these two medications together may cause too low blood sugar (Hypoglycemia). Those who take Metformin & Insulin, usually separate those two meds by about 5 or 6 hours. I take Metformin & Byetta with morning and evening meals and Insulin at bedtime. I am Type 2.

Yes, you can generally take turmeric tea while on Synthroid (levothyroxine), but it's important to do so with caution. Turmeric may interfere with the absorption of thyroid medication if consumed in large amounts or very close to the time of taking Synthroid. It's advisable to space the intake of turmeric and Synthroid by at least four hours and consult your healthcare provider for personalized advice.


When is the use of the medication metformin with dye contrast cat scan to be discontinued and how long?

This is a new idea in some areas so it is best to talk to your doctor as to what they recommend. Basicaly.. there is a small chance that the metformin (and other diabetic medications) could crystalize in the kidneys causing damage. The policy where I work recommends not taking the medication for 48 hours after you get the dye injection. We dont have a hold for the medication before getting the dye. If you are diabetic, ask your doctor if the medication you take has any restrictions when getting any kind of dye for a test. You may also ask the technologist doing your test, before the injection, what their policy is.
