hellos you have said that you are a patient ofChfdefib implanted/stentsdiabeteskidney failure stage threegoutostheoarhtritisrhumatoidhep Camry is glimipride and does cause recurrent hypoglycemia in kidney failure patients would suggest following either decrease the dose of April to 2 mg daily, as you are taking high dose that is 8 mg, and main excretion of April is through kidneys, and you have kidney failureamryl becomes almost 24 mg in your case inside your body causing hypoglycemia OR the best Chat Doctor.
