Default Metaformin & Headaches

Since I have been on Met. I seem to get a headache like every other day. Is anyone else having headaches? Could it be related or just me?

Thanks

Definitely... I get a headache about half an hour after I take my met in the evenings, and I've had headaches in the morning too. Though, it's starting to settle down now at 7 days of taking met. Since I'm about to up my dose I'll probably start getting the side effects again though.

I am now at my full dose. I get them in the early afternoons, and they don't usually go away with Tylenol or IBProphen. Sucks. I was not sure if it is the Met or something else causing them.

Thank you for your response. Hopefully we will get some more.

Have a great weekend and Happy Easter Lovely Ladies.

Sorry, I actually have less headaches now that I am taking Met... I used to have them everyday, now it's maybe 1-2 times a week. I know this is not much help but it sounded like you wanted more responses.
Good luck. Headaches SUCK!

Not just you! I had headaches when I first started taking met, but after I upped my dosage to 1000 mg from 500 mg, I stopped getting headaches. Now I just get nausea. :-( But on 500mg I got a headache daily.

When I started Met I got HA's continuously, but now a few weeks into Met I only have one or two a week. I am hoping they continue to decrease, but only time will tell.

I have them, but I started having them before I started the Metformin.

I read somehwere when I was first researching PCOS that a lot of PCOS women have problems with chronic headaches and migraines. I'll have to find the article and post it.

For the first 2 weeks of taking Met, I got horrible headaches that nothing would touch!
Now I get them about once a week. Sometimes twice a week.
