Is there a company in the United States that manufactures Metformin? ## Since Metformin is a generic, there are several companies that manufacturer it in the U.S. There is no way, however, of knowing which one may be carried by your local pharmacy, but you can try asking them about it.

My doctor advised me to take GLYCOMET 1gm in the evening and Diamicron MR 30 in the morning. My fasting is around 130 and PP is around 160. I am having medicine for BP also i.e SALOMAX 5/50 and TELPRES H 40. Please advice by return . ## Have the medications been helping your blood sugar levels and your blood pressure? Glycomet contains the active ingredient Metformin, which is an oral antidiabetic agent and the Diamicon-MR contains Gliclazide and, if someone's sugar levels are not well controlled by one or the other, it is normal for a doctor to combine them to help give you better control. Side effects may include: nausea, dizziness, headache and flatulence. Telpres contains the active ingredient Telmisartan, which is an ARB, used to treat high blood pressure and cardiac conditio...

I am 65 years. Have Diabetes since many years, but under control off and on. I have also gone under angioplasty in June-2005. I started on Penegra (after stopping Monotrate-20 for 3 days), one tablet of Penegra 100 mg. I continued for four days. First 3 days were wonderful. But after the fourth tablet, day before yesterday, I am feeling pain in legs and around hips. What can I do and what must have happened?? Is this irreversible ?

I've been taking Gyree 4 and Cetapin XR 500 in the morning before breakfast and another dose of Cetapin XR 500 at night, before dinner, per my doctor's instructions. This regiment has kept my blood sugar under control for quite some time. However, after a seizure resulted from an overdose of Synasma, my treatment was adjusted by another physician to Glyree 4 in the morning and Cetapin XR 500 at night, which also maintained my blood sugar levels well. Ten months later, with my glucose level dropping to 53, the physician adjusted my treatment to Cetapin 500 in the morning and night. Since this change, my fasting blood sugar averages about 140, with postprandial levels around 180. Could it be beneficial for me to revert back to my previous regimen, with Glyree 4 and Cetapin 500 in ...

I've found out .. aside of improving heart health and lowering glucose and cholesterol. It also offers a fantastic alternative for maintaining youth and vitality. How true?? Hmm.. Anyone?? ## My sister used that before for lowering her cholesterol as well as on boosting her immune system. Yap! It's true that it has the same amount of Resveratrol as 13 glasses of red wine. ## In my opinion supplementing with Resveratrol isn't a bad choice at all (just expensive). I do believe however that Turmeric root is a much cheaper, and equally if n...
