[QUOTE="Rachox, post: 1923400, member: 400972"] I don’t think it is right for you to suggest that Drs should never prescribe Metformin, it is a very cheap and very helpful drug for a lot of Type 2s. I have taken it for 18 months, I did have a little bit of stomach upset for the first week but have been fine ever since. I think Drs should warn people that it may upset their stomach but no one should have to suffer for two years, we’re you ever offered the slow release version during those two years? I too attribute the main part of my diabetes control to diet but am happy to continue the Metformin alongside and save the NHS the much bigger cost of treating complications in the future. [/QUOTE]
