[QUOTE="tink, post: 94296, member: 21855"] I took Metformin and had to stop it because of severe diarrhoea (I have IBS). I was going to the loo more than 10 times day and night. Then my elderly mother was put on Metformin (she didn't need to lose any weight). She got the funny food taste, the metallic taste and, in the end, was living on half a bowl of soup a day. I took her to the GP and got the Metformin stopped as she was becoming very frail looking (she's 87) and couldn't go on with the Metformin. It was a case of cure one thing but replace it with something else! If these pills suit you, then I'm sure they're great. If they don't suit you, then in my experience they're never going to suit you and the quicker you come off them and find something else that does suit you the better. Let's face it, it's bad enough having diabetes without being made miserable/ill by the medication! :roll: [/QUOTE]
