Have been on Metformin now for just 2 weeks, first week 500 once a day & now twice a day, morning & night. Touch wood not too many adverse effects?!
Now, I know it's very early days but i'm finding that i'm still having spells when i'm weak & shaky & dizzy in the afternoon. I'm thinking praps i need a midday dose?
I gather that slow release is a reluctant option for docs to prescribe cos it's obviously much more costly BUT aside from that does anyone know of any reason why standard maetformin is preferable to SR?
Seeing doc again tomorrow & it would be useful to be informed.....
Thank you experts!
