I used to enjoy going out with my friends and I.like to try all the cocktails since being diagnosed I've been on a bit of a slump not going out getting depressed etc am now thinking of starting going out is there any complications of alcohol when type 2 controlled by metformin ?
 
If you check Metformin on the internet it will take you to an NHS page which indicates that you can drink while taking Metafornin. I still drink the odd beer 1 or 2 a week and red wine and scotch and water. The one Drink I have been strictly warned off is Cider by my my DN. Full of Sugar and Carbs
 
It’s St Patrick’s Day . I’m newly diagnosed on500 Metformin a day and I am going out to drown the shamrock today .. is that a very bad idea
