I was wondering What time of day do you take your Metformin?
My Endo says I should take my 2000mg at night with my dinner. But I have found
I don't think it has enough time to dissolve in my stomach.
My dietitian on the other hand suggests in the morning with breakfast, which I agree
with because I don't see the pills later on. They fully dissolve
Also how important is it taking it at the same time each day?
Thanks Girls

I take 1000mg together after my evening meal around 7pm. That's the only time of day I remember!

My doc told me withmy biggest meal. And if you are talking about seeing the pill case in the toilet, it is dissolved all the way...what you are seeing is just the casing of the pill...everything inside is gone.

I take 500mg in the morning w/ my pseudo-breakfast, and the other 500mg at night right before bedtime. No stomach upset, no nausea, and the "other" side effect has resolved itself over time, and is no longer an issue.

Emma&Grace

I take 2000mg with Breakfast and 1000mg with dinner.
