I've been on Gliclazide for 5 weeks now (40mg twice daily) and they really make me even more lethargic than I was before and generally make me feel cr*p. On some occasions I felt quite giddy on my feet but wasn't hypo on the BGs. I've slowly come off them in last week and feel better. I am also on Dapagliflozin which is helping keep my BG down even without the Gliclazide. I never got on with Metformin either (even slow release). Maybe Dapagliflozin is the one for me as it gets rid of glucose via the kidneys. I will find out over time. Maybe my Pancreas is just not up to it. Has anybody else had side effects from Gliclazide. I'm sure it works great for some. Cheers
