Metformin Hydrocloride

[brendanbreen]

I was thinking about taking Metformin Hydrocloride oppose to taking insulin due to the fact that insulin well just scares the crap out of me really. I know its supposed to increase insulin sensitivity which is still very dangerous so understand i have no illusions of taking this, i just figure its safer than insulin. I really just like running things by all you much smarter more experienced folk before i get balls deep in research and waste all my time on something not worth it. Any personal insite you could give me would be huge. Thanks!!

what kind of doses are you planning on?
I've seen patient's on doses like 250 mg 3 times a day all the way up to 1500 mg , would plan on monitering your own blood sugar? i think that would also be important, just my 2 cents

rock and roll ain't noise pollution
