Metformin Information
Uses
Metformin is a biguanide-type medication that is
used along with a diet and exercise program to control
high blood sugar in diabetic patients. Metformin
works by helping restore your body's proper response
to the insulin you naturally produce, and by decreasing
the amount of sugar that your liver makes and that your
stomach/intestines absorb. Controlling high blood sugar
helps prevent heart disease, strokes, kidney disease,
blindness, and circulation problems, as well as sexual
function problems (impotence).
How To Use
Follow the directions for using Metformin provided
by your doctor. TAKE METFORMIN with food. DRINK
PLENTY OF FLUIDS while taking Metformin. CONTINUE
TO TAKE METFORMIN even if you feel well. Do not
miss any doses. Use this medication regularly in order
to get the most benefit from it. To help you remember,
use it at the same time(s) each day. Metformin may
come with a patient information leaflet. Read it carefully.
Ask your doctor, nurse, or pharmacist any questions
that you may have about Metformin. STORE THE U.S.
PRODUCT at room temperature between 68 and 77 degrees
F (20 and 25 degrees C), away from light and moisture.
Brief storage from 59 and 86 degrees F (15 and 30 degrees
C) is permitted. Do not store in the bathroom. STORE
THE CANADIAN PRODUCT between 59 and 86 degrees F (15
and 30 degrees C). Keep all medicines away from children
and pets. IF YOU MISS A DOSE OF METFORMIN, take
it as soon as possible. If it is almost time for your
next dose, skip the missed dose and go back to your
regular dosing schedule. DO NOT take 2 doses at once.
Side Effects
Also see WARNING. SIDE EFFECTS, that may go away during
treatment, include metallic taste in mouth, nausea,
stomach upset, and diarrhea. If they continue or are
bothersome, check with your doctor. If stomach symptoms
recur later (after you are on the same dose for several
days or weeks), tell your doctor immediately. A late
recurrence of stomach symptoms may be due to a serious
medical condition (lactic acidosis). Metformin usually
does not cause low blood sugar (hypoglycemia), but this
effect may occur if you do not consume enough calories
(from food, juices, fruit, etc.). The symptoms include
chills, cold sweat, dizziness, drowsiness, shaking,
rapid heartbeat, weakness, headache, fainting, tingling
of the hands or feet, or hunger. It is a good habit
to carry glucose tablets or gel to treat low blood sugar.
If you are in a situation where you don't have these
reliable forms of glucose, eat a quick source of sugar
such as table sugar, honey, or candy, or drink a glass
of orange juice or non-diet soda to quickly raise your
blood sugar level. Tell your doctor immediately about
the reaction. To help prevent hypoglycemia, eat meals
on a regular schedule and do not skip meals. Symptoms
of high blood sugar (hyperglycemia) include thirst,
increased urination, confusion, drowsiness, flushing,
rapid breathing, or fruity breath odor. If these symptoms
occur, tell your doctor immediately. Your medication
dosage may need to be increased. IF YOU EXPERIENCE difficulty
breathing; tightness of chest; swelling of eyelids,
face or lips; or if you develop a rash or hives, tell
your doctor immediately. Do not take any more doses
of Metformin unless your doctor tells you to do
so. If you notice other effects not listed above, contact
your doctor, nurse, or pharmacist.
Drug Interactions
Drug interactions can result in unwanted side effects
or prevent a medicine from doing its job. Use our drug
interaction checker to find out if your medicines interact
with each other.
Overdose
If overdose is suspected, contact your local poison
control center or emergency room immediately. Symptoms
of overdose may include rapid or trouble breathing,
severe drowsiness, and slow or irregular heartbeat.
