Hi, for those of you that are taking 2500 mgs or more, I'm just curious why your doctor chose that amount. I have always kinda thought 2000 was the highest, but apparently not? Maybe I should be on a higher dosage? Thanks in advance for your replies. Jean M.

I recently found out, and posted, that although 2550 mg is the highest recommended dose for regular Met or Glucophage, 2000 mg is the highest for Met ER or Gluc XR.

I just started 500mg today. I took Rezulin years ago and got pregnant with my little boy. I'm not ttc, I just want to lose some weight and control some of the other symptoms. Is 500mg enough?

From what I have read 1500 mgs is the least amount taken to be effective. It will take a while to get used to each dosage step. 1500 was the worst for me, but now I'm at 2000 mgs and lovin it!!!
