[QUOTE="chalup, post: 1321139, member: 306126"] The warning is against excess drinking as it can send you hypoglycemic. Metformin reduces the amount of glucose generated by your liver, aka liver dump, and alcohol takes your livers attention away from doing anything but processing alcohol. This means if your sugars go too low your liver wont jump in to save the day. A couple drinks as freema says should not be a problem but getting bombed could be. [/QUOTE]
