w Salam
yes Raat ko bhi Le sakti hain agar sugar low nahi hoti .
Yes it can be taken at night, but you have mention that some time it causes low sugar (hypoglycemia) at day time, so might harm at night too during sleeping time, my opinion is to take at before breakfast and adjust tab viotinment 50/850as after lunch and atfert dinner accordingly.

Yes she can take at night, and if it is control fasting with such scheduled at night, then carry on with one mg at night.. No problem..

Glimepride in my experience does not have a long term safety profile. Instead of a sulphonylurea she can take another dose of 500mg Metformin in the morning
