HI
Saw the nurse today who insisted the above were slow release even though the chemist told me they were not.
She has now prescribed Glucophage SR 750mg and told me to take one three times a day after meals. The chemist then queried this saying it is only usually two per day and actually...
Thanks will see how it goes for a week or so. The nurse did say some time ago she was thinking of the slow release tablets so dont really know why she didn't prescribe them.
When she said i will change the tablets I thought that was what she was giving me.
Hi
I have been on Metformin 1 x 500mg 3 times a day for 9 months and my blood sugar levels were rising so my nurse has put me on glucophage 850mg 3 times per day despite me telling her that the metformin were giving me an upset stomach occasionally.
Also my levels are high in the mornings...
