[QUOTE="DavidGrahamJones, post: 1474161, member: 245335"] It never suppressed my appetite Probably better to take medical advice although I have forgotten the odd tablet here and there. "The primary effect of taking [B]metformin[/B] is that the release of glucose from the liver is lessened, resulting in lower blood sugars. [B]Metformin[/B] also [B]works[/B] to lower blood sugar in two secondary ways: by increasing your sensitivity to insulin and decreasing the amount of glucose that is absorbed from the food you eat." Personally I've never noticed appetite suppression despite what it say on "the tin" and my BG improved enough for me to notice when I was first prescribed. If you are tempted to live without it, your BG readings will show up any major changes, if there are any. [/QUOTE]
