 I am just the mom of a Type 1 diabetic.  You can find out this information yourself by going to www.google.com and entering the medication name.  Just for fun, I did this for you:

 

1. GLIPIZIDE TABLET 5MG:  diabetes

 

2. METFORMIN 250MG TABLET:  diabetes

 

3. ENALAPRIL 5MG TABLET:  ace inhibitor could be for high blood pressure or for kidney problems related to diabtes

 

4. SIMVASTATIN 20MG TAB:  for high cholesterol

 

5. CARVEDILOL 6.25MG TABLET (DILATREND):  for the heart

 

6. NEUROFORTE TABLET B12 vitamin

 

7. ACARBOSE 50MG TABLET (GLUCOBAY) for diabetes
