Question metformin and vitamins

Hey everyone! I am on Met 500mg 4x a day. I havent's been taking my multivitamin because the met is already enough on my stomach. I was wondering what kind of multi that everyone takes, if anyone knows of a multi that is good on the stomach.
Also, i want to start taking a cinnamon vitamin. how many mg a day of cinnamon are good?
thanks everyone!

I use to take target brand of prenatal vitamens before I got pregnant and it was easy on my stomach. I was also taking glucophage XR 500mg, but only 2 times a day. Now I'm on a Rx called something like Calnate, it's not bad either. But I think it's generic for something.

I take BJ's brand of MV and never had a problem with it. I didn't have too many problems with Met either though (only when I upped my dose). Can you take your MV at night so you're not awake when you've got the symptoms??

Also, cinnamon is used to replace Met, so I wouldn't recommend taking both at the same time. There's a thread for cinnamon that you might want to take a look at.
