[QUOTE="sugarless sue, post: 182381, member: 1210"] Welcome to the Forum, Manxie. Standard Metformin should be totally out of your body in about 48 hours after you stop taking it. The SR version is usually kinder to the gut. Metformin will bring your Bg levels down by about 1-2 mmol/L on the maximum dose. If the GP cares to consult the BNF which all doctors have in their surgery he will see this : Why not give diet another go ? There are alternative drugs which you could have and not all of them make you put on weight but if you can control it with diet it's worth the effort. Here is the advice Ken and I give to new members, see if any of it helps. [/QUOTE]
