[QUOTE="Liam1955, post: 1375548, member: 118479"] [USER=349600]@wiseowl_123[/USER] - [USER=360268]@Johnjoe13[/USER] Most people take to Metformin, it can cause upset stomach and diarrhoea at first especially if taken on empty stomach - always take it with or just after food and drink a glassful of water too. But, there is another version: = Slow Release Metformin that is much kinder to your stomach and your GP and/or Diabetic Nurse can prescribe this for you. Metformin takes time to build up in your system and can take up to a couple of months to reach it's full effect. It also lowers the amount of Sugar created by the Liver and decreases the amount of Sugar absorbed by the Intestines. It may also help Type 2 Diabetics loose weight as it can lower appetite. :) [/QUOTE]
