[QUOTE="lovinglife, post: 1413202, member: 22428"] metformin doesn't work like that, it's a build up drug so taking it with a big meal won't make a difference. Met isn't that effective on lowering numbers but does help insulin resistance - just keep taking them as you have been doing - as long as they are evenly spread. I'm on same dose as yourself and I take 1x500g with my breakfast and same with my evening meal :) What else are you trying to reduce your numbers? Have you considered lowering your carbs, many of us find significantly reducing our carb consumption is the most effective way of lowering our blood sugar. Have you had the welcome info from [USER=25759]@daisy1[/USER] - it's a good place to start and have a look around the low carb forum [/QUOTE]
