1068689 tn?1325827206 Thanks for the info. When i was at my dizziest time, my BG's were still over 220. I was also dizzy at 180 so am pretty sure it is not due to low BG's at this point. The side affects to Glimepiride also includes dizziness. I was hoping others on here may have taken this pill and had some experiences with it. Since this new change in meds is new I'm sure there are some issues I just have to deal with.
Avatar n tn After this happened a couple of times I quit taking the Metformin. About a year later I was then diagnosed with T2 and am now on Glimepiride and have since began having these episodes again. They begin in the jaw area primarily the glands just below my jaws, with a sting/tingling that intensifies and radiates out all around my ears, neck throat and surface of my chest, and my upper torso goes ice cold. This takes place any where from a 30 second to a 3 minute cycle.
Avatar m tn the drug glimepiride, is not making my blood sugar level lower; instead is higher 250! I am taking 2mg twice a day. My doctor says all is OK.
Avatar f tn He takes 2 tablets Glycomet Trio 1 (Metformin HCL Sustained Release, Glimepiride & Voglibose Tablets) - 1 before taking lunch and before taking dinner.
Avatar m tn I have been on metformin for years, but was not controlling BG. My MD switched me to Glimeperide my BG is good but my appetite and weight have increased a lot. Any one have the same issues? Also, my vision is fluctuating from blurry to sharp during the day, I do have Myasthenia Gravis which can have vision issues too. Any comments?
1273125 tn?1365077526 Hey Scrappy - has your doctor suggested adding GLIMEPIRIDE to your Metformin? I am type 2, have been for 10 years - also only have 1/2 a Pancreas, as I had to have the other half removed due to a tumor in the head of my Pancreas - 8 hour surgery, and 8 days in the hospital, which is where the Insulin shots started. Initially, I came home from the hospital on both types of Insulin.
Avatar m tn Thanks for answering, Just to clarify, I take high sugar foods OR I take metformin. Not both at the same time. I think metformin mostly helps with insulin resistance (and it doesnt lower the sugars since they are already normal). My sugars are OK even when I am not taking metformin. They get high from 5.5 to 8 when I eat, but they drop back to 6 or 5, 2 hours after eating. The sugar levels during the shaking and weakness episodes are 4.5 to 5.
Avatar n tn Clonidine, Glimepiride, Byetta, Metformin, Amlodipine, Crestor, and Losartan HCT. Is it possible that it could be these meds? Please help!! I'm working by tail off and still have a GUT. Thank you in advance.
Avatar n tn Hi Doctor, My wife has consulted the doctor as advised by you and he has prescribed Cetapin 1000 mg 1-0-1 (metformin) along with Glimy-4(Glimepiride)1-0-0-. Hope this is OK.
Avatar m tn For level 2 diabetes you should take metformin tablet regularly. It does not reduce glucose level in body. But it effectively cure level 2 diabetes. For more information plz visit: http://www.antiaging-systems.
Avatar n tn I am taking some tablets prescribed by my doctor containing (glimepiride USP,pioglitazone hydrochloride,metformin hydrochloride). Is it ok to take these tablets? does this contain sugar?
Avatar f tn Also on fertility medicine Femara and thyroid medicine, typing to get pregnant. I need some fruit to take Metformin. Just Metformin is making me more nauseous and discouraging. So I eat one date fruit with every Metformin i,e just after swallowing Metformin. Is this okay?. Also I eat grapes now whenever I feel like need more energy to move around. Is that good? I lost my apetite after started Metformin. So trying to be more on fruits.
801413 tn?1333539276 Do you know if you are ovulating? Its good your cycles seem regular for you. If your not ovulating you may need to take Metformin and Clomid or Fermera. I haven't read too much about just conceiving on metformin (unless your ovulating correctly).
Avatar m tn t contain sperm . I read a lot on it saying it does not contain sperm but if not all released prior to the sexual contact sperm can be in it which can result in pregnancy . All that can really be said is if she is late on her period have her take a test .you may have had that precum on your underwear because you were still aroused and didn't finish anything so that may have came after the encounter there's no saying that was on the condom while you were have intercourse .
Avatar m tn Pre-ejaculation DOES contain sperm, however if it was dry it is dead. As a precaution, wash your hands before you touch her. Yes you might be in the mood, but better to take 1 minute to clean up properly then spend weeks of worry.
Avatar n tn i am 25 now, about 6 months ago i was diagnosed as type 2 diabetic and put on metformin, 500 mg, 2X per day. i take my medication as prescribed and was told to LIMIT sugar and carbohydrate intake.my sugar is usually 65-70 when i first wake up and stays stable thoughout the day (i don't check it if i don't feel sick).
Avatar f tn Metformin really does not help .most gyns give that but it really does not work. And after taking it for months. My fertility doctor said at shady grove does not recommended that.
Avatar m tn m a type 2 diabetes i exercise (jump rope) every day 30min in the morning and 30min in the evening and i follow the diet verry well but my blood sugar level does not go never under 220mg/dl . What is wrong ?
484844 tn?1253968693 I never took this drug, but I can say Provera never helped me with my bleeding too. Your right, this drug is used to help treat certain types of cancers and is also given to those with unexplained vaginal bleeding. If you are concerned about the side affects to this drug (but like this drug and 1,000's more, they will always contain side affects) you should speak to your doctor on other options. What are your symptoms? How long have you been bleeding?
996946 tn?1503249112 I was wondering if anyone has had a problem with extreme fatigue while taking glimiperide? I have been taking Metformin but my blood sugar is still running a little high so my Dr put me on the glimiperide.
225237 tn?1333138999 My wife has long recovered from severe panic disorder, but still takes a daily 150mg dose of Venlafaxine along with an occasional small dose of Xanax. She has not reported any drug interaction when Metformin was introduced. She was formerly on Paxil, but following breast cancer, had to go on a five year regime of Tamoxifen. Paxil reduced the effectiveness of the Tamoxifen, so she had to switch to Venlafaxine.
Avatar f tn Thats true. Metformin does help with both insulin resistance and non because this medication is intended for diabetes. I also read, when given to women with pcos it should improve cycles within 3-6 months only if insulin levels are improved. By all rights your doctor should have checked your sugar levels before placing you on metformin, and then repeating the test in about 3 months to see where you stand. A blood test would be the only way to know for sure.
Avatar n tn So I was diagnosed with Type 2 in August of last year. I have a few concerns with my diagnosis. First, the whole reason my doc did a full blood exam was bc of my extreme anemia which at the time was pretty bad; my hemoglobin was terrible. Based off those results he said my blood sugar was high and scheduled an A1C a week later. Based off the A1C he diagnosed me type 2. Since being diagnosed, I've been on Metformin BID.
950954 tn?1271210887 Hi there. Metformin is a diabetic drug that is used to treat PCOS now. It is suppose to help in regulating your menstrual cycle making you ovulate regularly. I took it for a couple months and it didn't do anything for me so good luck to you!!!
