Metformin makes me ill, only taking one 500mg SR tablet afternoon, it slows me up, headache, pains in back and chest, feel sicky, horrible but my dr asked me to try carry on & stop for short periods if need be. I also take gliclazide morning & evenings but the metforminin does give me better bs...

I think metformin taken without can cause a big bs drop although my doc insists its not possible. I was put on two 850mg met twice a day last year & did not eat breakfast, took my metformin and went shopping two hours later, it was very hot day, i started sweating so bad, running down my head...
