Glim Dosage

I am taking Glimpiride 2 mg in the morning (in empty stomach) and Glucomet tablet (combination of metformin 500mg and glimpiride 2 mg) after breakfast. Is it OK to consume Glimpiride 2mg tablet, twice a day? ## How often has your doctor instructed you to take it? These medications are most commonly used to help lower and control blood sugar. The NIH lists the typical side effects as possibly including nausea, dizziness, headache, diarrhea, stomach pain, and hypoglycemia. Do you also watch your diet and gets lots of exercise?

turguoise oval tablet 3 22 one side, RDY on other side is different than the lt. blue round pills with 9 3 and 72 56 on them from different pharmacy. oval pills causing lethargy, both were supposed to be generic for amaryl. could 4mg dosage be wrong? ## No, the 4mg dose is not incorrect. Both are 4mg Glimepiride. Not all generics always release the medication exactly the same. Perhaps your system just cant handle the one form. I would talk to the pharmacist or go to a pharmacy that carries the generic that works best with your system.

My dad has been taking tablets that are a combination of Glimepiride + Metformin HCI. Is it possible that he shift to taking just Metformin HCI (of the same dosage)? or is it also possible that the two substances: Glimepiride and Metformin HCI be taken separately (one pill for Glimepiride and another pill for Metformin HCI)? ## I take them separate 1000 mg Metformin twice a day and Glimepiride 2mg before meals.

(RS150-90). ## It should be okay to do so, as long as the dosages are the same, but it is always best to double check with your doctor to be sure. The U.S. FDA lists the typical side effects of this medication as possibly including nausea, dizziness, headache, stomach pain, and flatulence. Are you on any other medications?

I din't think much about it, but after reading the information on MS Contin, I am worried that it may be dangerous to cut them in half. I've been doing it for about 5 days and have not noticed any problems with cutting them in half but I will call the pharmacy tomorrow and ask him. ## Is it in order to break GP1 glimepride into two to reduce the dosage to 0.50mg.Will it cause any problem and whether any reduction in effectivenes of the tablet will be possible. ## I have done it for a while to cut down, and a pharmacist said I could.
