Default Tired after two doses? Headaches?

Wondering if anyone else felt this way. I feel like I have ZERO energy. Like I had a really hard workout, and I've gotten headaches the two days that I have been talking it. 500 mg once a day.

At first I did feel like that. But it went away after awhile.
Good Luck!

I got really bad headaches when I started Metformin. At first I took it only once a day at 500mg at supper and I did that for like a week and increased it to twice and then finally three times a day. The headaches eventually went away.
Good luck,
Mel

This is pretty standard at the start but it could also be low blood sugar. Make sure you are eating small meals often to keep your blood sugar up. Take care!
