After a concerted effort to lose weight and the help of another drug, Byetta, I managed to lose over 5 1/2 stone, and now take no Gliclazide at all, just a couple of Metformin in the morning plus Byetta twice daily. The side effects are not mandatory, not everybody gets them. I got none at all. Just me....... <img src="data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7" class="smilie smilie--sprite smilie--sprite1" alt=":)" title="Smile    :)" loading="lazy" data-shortname=":)" /> Ken</blockquote>
