[QUOTE="Dennis, post: 76454, member: 1338"] Hi Doczoc, You are right in that a single 500mg tablet won't have an enormous effect, either on the insulin resistance or on glucose supression. And of course it could be that the combination of weight loss through your low carb diet, plus metformin in the early days has now reduced your insulin resistance considerably. I suggest that you carry on as you are and see what the HBA1C results show in a couple of weeks. That test will cover the full 3 months that you have been off metformin. If they are the same or no worse then you know that you can get away without it. If they are higher than the last test then know you'll need to restart the metformin. [/QUOTE]
