I started taking this medication over two weeks ago. After the second dose I started vomiting profusely. I continued for a few days and my readings came down from 180 - 190 to 120. After reading these reviews I feel like I should continue this med and see if the side effect subsides. Will let you know!

I have been on this med for about a year, I take 2.5mg/1000mg twice a day. It has been better than the metformin. But I think I might get better results from the pills if I excercised and ate better. It does make me nauseated if I do not eat after taking the pill. I must eat something about every 3 hours or i will start to feel sick. If I go to bed without something of substance in my belly, ...

I have been on this med for about a year, I take 2.5mg/1000mg twice a day. It has been better than the metformin. But I think I might get better results from the pills if I excercised and ate better. It does make me nauseated if I do not eat after taking the pill. I must eat something about every 3 hours or i will start to feel sick. If I go to bed without something of substance in my belly, I will wake up 2 to 3 hours later sick on the stomache. Sometimes a cup of applesauce or fruit cup is not enough to prevent the upset stomache. So I have to eat more than I want sometimes. There is some loose stools from the meds but since I am on a statin that constipates it will balance it out most of the time.

I take 1 pill a day with dinner. My glucose levels starting dropping immediately and were below 120 within 3 weeks. When I started I had 1 day of mild digestive issues. It has made my diagnosis and life style changes seem effortless. I am very happy with this medication.

I'm taking this now because they took Avandamet off the market. I really liked Avandamet--used it for 6 years with no problem. On this new med for 3 days. I am experiencing severe chest pains lasting an hour (first night), severe reflux and abdominal pain (second night), reflux, gas, belching and constipation by 3rd night. None of this is normal for me. Has anyone experienced these problems ... Show Full Comment
