[QUOTE="mrawfell, post: 223446, member: 34555"] I'm afraid I still like my beer, a bit more than the 21 units a week. I was on Metformin but I couldn't tolerate the stomach unpsets, constipation, discomfort etc. My BG was OK. always no greater then 6.5, and mostly below 6. I was taking 1 x 500 mg per day. I have seen in this forum stomach upsets, are relatively common with Metformin, and controlled release is better. However my doctor just chenged me to Sitagliptin ( sorry if the spelling is wrong ) 50 mg a day, and I am fine. [/QUOTE]
