“Doctor, what should be my targets for Hba1c, Fasting and Post meal (PP) glucose?”
Many of our friends with Diabetes have this question. I will try to explain in the thread below.

HbA1c should be done at least 2 times a year if goals are met and glucose control is stable,
Done more often if goals not met or there is change in the medicines.
A1c goal for many non pregnant adults is < 7% without any significant hypoglycaemia.

Tighter HbA1c goals ( less than 7%) may be considered in some.
Less stringent goals (less than 8%) may be appropriate in pts with limited life expectancy or side effect of drugs.
Individualisation of glycemic targets is a must. It’s not a one size fits all criteria.
