Good grief!
I am now on day two of taking the ActosPlus Met 15/500. I take one pill twice daily now. I purposely waited to start taking the two pills because I was afraid of the side effects. I was good the first two 1/2 weeks on it. I was taking the one pill at b'fast and doing just fine. A little stomach gurgling would happen but, nothing else out of the ordinary. Then... on Monday I started taking the two pills. One at b'fast and one at lunch. Yesteray I started to get the nausea feeling mid afternoon and right into the evening. Then today... I ate very little at b'fast and lunch in fear of the same feeling. Well, it took the med again just like yesterday and.....oh my goodness... Just after eating dinner the meds really did my stoamach in. I couldn't be far from the bathroom. Diahrreha set in from the medicine. After about two hours of bathroom runs (no pun intended) I had my son find me some Immodium AD. It has helped a little but not much. Is this freaking normal? I know I should call my doctor but, I really want to stick it out and stay on the medicine. I may have to start taking a change of clothes w/me to work just in case. This really sucks. Anyone have any suggestions on what to do to ease the side effects? I'm willing to try anything.... well almost...
Thanks for listening.
