Metformin ZYD made me feel poisoned, too. The constipation was unbearable and I stopped taking it since even on the lowest dose I felt just awful.

Meformin HCL ER is Extended Release and Metformin ZYD is Regular. I would check with the pharmacy to make sure the script is correct or and with your doctor.

I was using metformin 850 mg bluefish with the combination of one tablet of cholesterol control. I was taking metformin three times a days. My diabetic level was going to normal and it was stable for three weeks around 5.6 to 5.8. I was happy, my medicine finished and I got another 100 tablets from medical store, it was metformin 850 mg Sandoz. It did not suit me really. I am feeling tired and weakness, heart impression goes down some thing like that. I will definitely contact with my doctor in a couple of days. I just need to know metformin 850 bluefish and metformin 850 Sandoz are two different tablets or these are the same?

I have had my Metformin 500mg changed to the Metformin 500mg ZYD. Well I have discovered I am allergic to this medicine. I have difficulty trying to get a full breathe of air, my arms, face and neck that I notice have red blotches. The size of the pill is different and it has a 70 on one side and a Z on the other. I have not had a chance to speak with my Doctor yet.
