It is also used in cases of Poly Cystic Ovarian Syndrome to help with Fertility.

trying to id a pill: it is large, oval/oblong with Rx on one side and 360 on other ## I was not able to find an exact match for RX 360. The closest thing I could find was a white oblong tablet with RX 860 on it. Do you think there is any way that the 8 could have been mistaken as a 3? If so, RX 860 is Metformin extended release 500 mg, used in treating type II diabetes.

TWO TRIANGLES ## The pill you are describing should be 500 mg Metformin for treating type 2 diabetes. The only other detail which would be helpful is if you can confirm that the other side has "500" printed on it, to indicate the dosage. I based the answer off the following imprint: |><| (except vertical instead of horizontal), then 4331 The hourglass logo represents the manufacturer IVAX.

the #60 Glipizide/ metformin are 5-500 mg. and the #60 Glipizide are 5 mg. Why would you take 1 tablet of the Glipizide metformin 500 mg and 1 Glipizide 5 mg? do they balance each other out or help stabalize sugar levels? thank you for responding. ## metformin and glipizide are two seperate diabetic medications. the metformin has a small amount of glipizide in it - and the rest that you need is supplied by the 5mg pill. also, the 5mg glipizide should be taken 30 min before a meal, the 500 mg metformin WITH a meal. you should also be receiving vitamin B12 supplements, as the metformin decreases your levels.

used for treatment of diabetes ## just want to ask im not on diabetic pills my blood sugar goes down to low , my a1c is 6.4 does this pill biada work to keep it in safe levels ? saw it on the news said it is from lizard spit ? lol ## The correct name is Byetta, it is not approved to treat Type I and it is not a pill, it is an injection. Like any other drug, it works differently for different people, only you and your doctor can decide what medication is best for you. ## By the way, this is also meant to treat people with HIGH sugar levels, not low ones, it would make them lower and could create dangerous problems.

the pill is 9 mm in diameter, white, and has L1 stamped on one side of it. I took it accidentally thinking it was my ACTOS (it is very slightly larger than ACTOS 15 mg) ## I need to know what that pill is also ## Is that the complete imprint from the tablet?

2 REPLIES Updated in Actos

Prescriped for diabetis type 2 with actos. I was looking to gain weight with a different drug than metformin. ## Most of the side effects are the same as they are for Metformin, except for nausea and cold symptoms, which were more prominent with Januvia. Weight gain, however, is not a typical side effect of either one.
