I made a bad joke when I refused to go to the fitness center with a friend. I told her, "Why do I need fitness if I don't have endogenous insulin?". She heard enough of me saying that insulin is the cause of fullness and bought herself metformin. I don't know how she did it without a doctor's prescription, but she doesn't have diabetes, and her weight is only 65 kilograms.I tried to tell her that no medicine can be used without a doctor's appointment, but she is so delighted that she dropped 4 kilograms without doing anything! I know that metformin, unlike insulin, cannot lead to hypoglycemic coma, but is this drug safe?What can an overdose lead to?
