Taking meds

I only know about Gliclizide and yes you need to eat when you take this. It can cause a hypo if you take it without eating. When I was on it I used to take it 20 minutes before my meal, but it does continue working for longer. If I didn’t eat I didn’t take it
 
Do you still take your meds if you don't have breakfast..
When I was on metformin I stuck to the instructions on the box, "take with meals". So if I did not eat I did not take them, if I ate I took them.
 
And if you've been low carbing or losing weight, it is best to go back to doctor in case doses need adapting, as they were based on where you were when you started
