I posted this thread http://www.diabetes.co.uk/forum/threads/do-metformin-brands-differ.82663/#post-929075 a few weeks back about changing brands of Metformin and my bloods going through the roof...........

In a nutshell , I changed chemist who gave me a new brand of metformin , within weeks my bloods went from mostly single figures tops to 18/19 and even 20......changed back to old brand after a month and bloods dropped back to what they were before..........

I know I have no proof but just a warning for anyone struggling with their blood sugar , check what brand you are on .................

Teva metformin has many complaints and from my experience they seem justified..........


Does anyone know how I would go about reporting this......................
 
I would suggest complaining to chemist and discussing with GP. There is a route for pharmacists to make complaints about drugs, but since the chemist gave you the Teva metformin, they might get defensive.
