[QUOTE="Eurobuff, post: 986081, member: 113391"] My mother is diabetic (has been since 2002). Her BG was in the 20's. They put her on Metformin, which didn't agree with her (constant diarrhoea and being sick) She kept telling the doctor who just nodded but did nothing. After a year she said she'd had enough and was refusing to take any more. They put her on 4 X 80mg Gliclazide, 2 on a morning, 2 at night (this is the maximum dose), they also put her on Avandia (which she was taken off when it was banned). Her BG was higher on the Gliclazide than when she was on the metformin, which is why they put her on the Avandia as well. At that time though, she was seeing a dietician who was telling her to eat plenty of bananas, baked beans and potatoes, which would explain her high BG levels! She is still taking the same dose of Gliclazide today, her last hba1c was classed as satisfactory (6.4) [/QUOTE]
