[QUOTE="JohnEGreen, post: 1843082, member: 223921"] I discussed this with my doctor his take on it and the guide lines say that it is dosage dependent that is if on the minimum dosage of metformin and your EGFR is I think 50 or above it is reasonably safe . But it would be best if you were to discuss this with your GP . My EGFR is 50 and I am taking 500 mg of metformin a day and my doctor and I are happy with that at the moment. But if my EGFR drops to 48 or below then that may change things. [/QUOTE]
