[QUOTE="ickihun, post: 2099712, member: 196960"] Type2s without Gliclizide don't normally hypo on metformin only. Gliclizide is a med which increases your insulin production so if your overweight it's counter-productive. Has a GP checked your hba1c blood test lately? Are you using a meter due to Gliclizide med? Always use a meter if you want to know how your daily bgs are doing. An hba1c blood test only gives a past few month's average. Keep testing and if your finding Gliclizide is too strong for you then go back to see your diabetes care team. You know your body better than anyone. Gliclizide can wear out your pancreas... eventually so a med that should only be used short time in my opinion. However remember no one on here is able to give you medical advice. Including me. Read your Gliclizide info leaflet fully and take medical advice if your meter is reading too low on a regular basis. An odd low is ok, in fact normal for type2s. [/QUOTE]
