Insulin Resistance

Blood sugar medications like metformin are important medicines that help metabolism, so you must not stop them on your own. Herbal medicine is often used together with such drugs, but telling us all the medications and supplements you are taking is the basis of safety. In particular, when blood sugar improves through weight loss and management, the existing dose can become excessive and cause hypoglycemia, so if you have signs of low blood sugar such as dizziness, cold sweats, or hand tremors, you must consult your prescribing doctor and adjust the medication.

Our Korean Medicine Clinic's Perspective

At Dongjedang, we check your current medications during the visit and design the prescription so they don't conflict, and we also guide you on separating the times you take them. Herbal medicine is not a replacement for your medication; its role is to clear the accumulated surplus and revive metabolism to improve belly fat and sensitivity together. When blood sugar stabilizes through management, we work together with your doctor to adjust your medication.
