Metformin Dosing

Metformin arriving in a day or two. Wondering what everyone started out on and what you tried to normalize glucose to.

  1. A couple months ago I was experimenting with metformin. I started out taking a single 500 mg pill (at mealtime) for the first couple days. Then I went up to 500 mg twice daily (at mealtimes). After several weeks I went up to 500 mg three times daily. For the most part I had no side-effects, except once I felt nauseous briefly after a glass of red wine. I was not checking my blood glucose levels.

  3. We are using 2000 mg daily as per prescription from doctor. I asked for it and originally we were 1000. You just have to watch your blood sugar levels so you don't suddenly drop too low.
