  • Glibenclamide is not related with Metformin,so it is quite safe on its own.

  • @WorldTurnBlack I didn't. I stopped taking it without telling my doctor. She wouldn't listen to my symptoms anyway.

    I go to a new doctor soon. Hopefully he won't prescribe Metformin. I'll refuse it in any case.

  • Metformin causes terrible diarrhea in 50% or more of users. The diarrhea can be so bad that you will have to stop taking metformin, so make sure and keep your doctor informed about this, as diarrhea will cause dehydration and other bad side effects when it is long term as is often the case with Metformin users. You can also expect more stomach aches, difficulty digesting food, food repeating on you, having to eat less to avoid bloating and more gas. This isn't an easy med to live with for many.

  • which user said this? the one who made the video? i ask this because i have pcos as well and have been perscribed metformin and am a little worried about taking it

  • i got a comment from this user that simply said "YOUR FAT" so I wouldnt listen to this person or subscribe. I have PCOS and I know I am over weight but I dont think it is professional of a person in health care to be so damn MEAN!

  • metformin destroys the liver over time; gluburide destroys the pancreas. Educate your selves on proper nutrition. Bad eating habits create mellitus, diabetes II, and proper nutrition heals the condition.

  • What is lactic acidosis?
