[QUOTE="Guzzler, post: 1559983, member: 408573"] Hi there anon and welcome to the forum. With any drug there are side effects/risks. The malabsorption of vitB12 caused by Metformin is the price I pay for a lessening of liver dumps and the protection of organs. You must weigh up which one concerns you the most and decide from there. I, too, eat a B12 freindly diet but will keep an eye on levels if they are flagged up in my regular blood tests. As B12 is useful for a number of diabetes related complications, not least neuropathies, it is wise, I think, to be aware if levels drop. [/QUOTE]
