[QUOTE="Molly56, post: 604925, member: 84857"] Am interested to hear any comments on this one as my partner has recently had his prescription for gliclazide increased from 2 x 80mg per day to the maximum of 4 x 80mg per day......also on metformin 4 x 500mg per day (maximum dose) I was aware that weight gain was mentioned as one of the potential side effects and this seems to contradict the idea of trying to bring his weight down. Due to hip and knee pain I would describe him as relatively inactive and 'excercise' as non-existent. Am hoping that doubling the dose doesn't just pile on the pounds:(:(:( [/QUOTE]
