It is so good that you are watching your dad's labs. Can you get the opinion of the MD overseeing the NP.

Interesting! The literature I found was for AKI (sorry, should’ve mentioned that!)
which was the concerning part of his labs to me.
I just don’t think semaglutide agrees very well with him given the lack of improvement in his labs & management of his type 2 diabetes.
Thank you for suggesting to have the overseeing MD advise! Even being a nurse I forgot that!
I found what seems to be a credible site (third party tested with reports and great reviews) for a berberine supplement I think would be great for glucose metabolism. Will likely purchase after discussing with his NP!
Also, I feel obligated to state I am in no way affiliated with this company and this is not to be taken as professional medical advice. Please always do your own research and talk to your provider!!
