Default Metformin SR

I have heard people mention Metformin XR and just Metformin but mine has just got Glucophage/Metformin SR on the box. Is this the same as XR or what? I am getting very confused and looking it up on the internet didnt help. Hope someone can.

Thanks

SR = slow release. I think it's the UK version of Met ER. I have only ever seen SR referred to on UK sites.

Thank you christyz I thought they might be the same. I suppose different makes as well call them different, I dont know why they cant all be the same but nevermind. Thanks for letting me know, confusion has settled now!
