[QUOTE="jjraak, post: 2675116, member: 493719"] Interesting... Hadn't considered it would be so different . In that spirit mine is: Crescent 500mg. Label on blister pack says Brown & burk 1000mg. (But that covers 2 tablet blisters) Prolonged release Pack says:Film coated Not sure what previous brand was, but it was the standard format. Had no issues with those, but got switched to prolonged released (unrelated to T2D or issues ) by GP at re-issue a year or two back. Tolerate the new version just fine. Ingredients read: Metformin hydrochloride. 500 or 850mg of active ingredient. Other ingredients: Sodium starch glycolate maize starch. Povidone Colloidal anhydrous silica Magnesium stearate. Hydroxypropylmethylcellulose. Titanium dioxide. (E171) Propylene glycol. Macrogol 6000. Putrefied talc Nom nom nom .. :hilarious: Good luck finding out more & being able to settle on one that gives the least discomfort. [/QUOTE]
