You are also supposed to take Metformin with food.Once you start on the bowel emptying preparation, don't plan to be far from the loo, and don't let anyone with a newspaper under their arm wander in ahead of you either.<img src="data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7" class="smilie smilie--sprite smilie--sprite7" alt=":p" title="Stick Out Tongue    :p" loading="lazy" data-shortname=":p" /></blockquote>
