[QUOTE="joanAA, post: 516457, member: 48142"] I started with gliclazide which did not agree with my insides, so was moved onto metformin. I 'lived' with very frequent bouts of cramps, diarrhoea, excess wind etc and after nearly a year Dr said that I could now go onto SR Metformin (more expensive to prescribe) because I had proved that other medication did not work for me. I have found it much better, and hope they will continue to prescribe. Over age 76 now, so it might not be 'cost effective'. [/QUOTE]
