I was on met for several years.. since 2000... and always had the oval pills.. they ALWAYS made me sick and never did a thing for me at all.. no weight loss, just a lot of getting sick to my stomach. I could never go above 500mg.. or I'd throw up.
Now I just went back on met... and got the round pill which i've never seen or heard of before.. I even took them back to the pharmacy to make sure thats what they were.
I'm on 500 and no side effects at all.. but i've noticed my appetite is GONE. I have to force myself to eat. I'm considering going to 1000mg to see whats up...
But maybe the round ones are a better generic??? I still have a zillion left over oval metformins and I'll never touch them again now. I wonder if you can request a certain generic brand?
