[QUOTE="Daibell, post: 756196, member: 21149"] Can I ask whether you were having Metformin SR, the Slow Release version? This gives far fewer bowel problems. As graj0 says, the Glitazones can work very well but do have some side effects so do watch out for these and read the leaflet. A low-carb diet remains the best plan of attack. If you are not overweight, there are other drugs in addition to Metformin that can help e.g. Gliclazide and Sitagliptin. I chose Sitagliptin over a Gltazone when my diabetes GP offered one or the other as I was aware of some of the side effects. [/QUOTE]
