BEEN TAKING METFORMIN7267,93 SOME TIME STARTEDWITH DIAHREA. WHEREIS PILL MADE? ## The products that Teva provides in the U.S. are manufactured here. How long have you been taking it? Diarrhea can be a normal side effect of using Metformin, along with nausea and flatulence. Learn more: ## Yes, it's Teva per Drugs.com. Teva products sold in the US are made in various countries including Israel, India, the Czech Republic, and the US. Using the link below (which I was directed to from Teva's US site), you'll see near the bottom that Teva metformin is manufactured in India.

what is teva metformin hcl tablets used for ## Hi mook, Metformin is an oral anti-diabetic drug in the biguanide class. It is used alone or with other medications, including insulin, to treat type 2 diabetes (condition in which the body does not use insulin normally and, therefore, cannot control the amount of sugar in the blood). Metformin helps to control the amount of glucose (sugar) in your blood. It decreases the amount of glucose you absorb from your food and the amount of glucose made by your liver. Metformin also increases your body's response to insulin, a natural substance that controls the amount of glucose in the blood. You can view a detailed description of the drug by clicking on the link below... I hope this helps!

white,oval,48 on one side 93 on other side. Is not scored, made by Teva. Can I cut in half? I've not used this brand before. It doesn't have the taste of usual tablet made by APOT. ## my metformin by teva smells and taste like a dead mouse, ## I had the dead mouse and the major fish. I stopped because of stomach pain from the chinese manu that seemed to win all the local contracts. High A1C as a result of these games. ## To clear up some things asked about or mentioned in these posts… No, it is not safe to cut any tablet that is time released, as denoted by the ER in the first post. Doing say may result in your getting too much of the medication, at once, which could lead to overdose. However, the tablet made by Teva with the 93 48 marking is not a time release...

Just got my Metformin ER 750 refilled. The pills look different... could be different manufacturer? One has 93 on one side and 7212 on the other. The other has 143 stamped on one side and nothing I can see on the other side. Help? ## Yes, they are both the same medication, a controlled release formulation of Metformin in a 750mg dosage. The one with the 93 is manufactured by Teva Pharmaceuticals and the 143 is manufactured by Sun Pharmaceuticals. It is common for the pharmacy to switch which generic they supply, depending on which company was offering the cheapest price, when they needed to restock their supply. It's how they keep their prices as low as possible for customers without insurance. Is there anything else I can help with? ## I was prescribed with CLOPIDOGREL -PLAGERINE 7...

Ask dr. change back, may be your body with that brand, fix it,be glad you noticed.:) ## Actually, both of the tablets you have are manufactured by TEVA, the 93 is their former logo and TEVA is their new one, they have been gradually changing the logos on all their medications...

Can't fine teva brand of Metformin regular or ER in my location and I'm allergic to other generic brands. Need to find in Utica, Sterling Hts , MI 48314 area. ## Have you tried asking any of your local pharmacies if they can order it in for you? From what I have found, they still list the 500mg, 850mg and 1000mg as being available. A pharmacy should be able to order it in for you and you, or your insurance would just have to pay for it. What type of reaction do you have to the other ones? ## Hi. I just moved from the area. St John Pharmacy gave me Teva brand my last order. They are located in Macomb Twp, MI on Romeo Plank south of 21 mile. I don't have their phone no as I just switched phones, there also may be another St John Pharmacy located closer to you.

Have taken this brand for 2 years with no problems but last refill was told pharmacy can't get it anymore. Tried Teva and have stomach issues, anxiety and palpitations. Tried Solco and felt horrid. Is Sandoz not making met anymore? ## Hello, JJ! How are you? Apparently, there is a shortage of the raw ingredients required to manufactured Metformin, so some manufacturers have been unable to maintain and distribute a supply. The situation is expected to resolve, but there's no way of knowing for sure when it will occur. Have you tried the name brand? You might want to ask your doctor about writing for it, so you can't be given a generic, at least while this issue continues.

Looks different than my previous pills, just want to double check. ## this was my post, found out that the pharmacy had the wrong manufacturer on the label. Mystery solved.

Aurobindo - SHUT THEY DOWN! When a manufacturer changes we should be notified. After all, it is our money going to these companies. I opened my Metformin and noticed the shape and the SMELL was unbelievable - FISH SMELL. I will only accept meds from TEVA. How do they get away with this? I called the pharmacy and they were not very concerned. I'm going to inform everyone I know (family, friends, church members, EVERYONE) about this manufacturer. ## Hello, Connie! How are you? I'm very sorry that you're so upset. However, Metformin always has an odd smell, the difference is that some companies use an outer coating to keep you from smelling it, but I can assure you that it is completely normal, which is why your pharmacy wasn't concerned. The FDA lists the typical side effe...
