Just to give you a few examples... White, oblong, 93 on one side, 7214 on the opposite. White, oblong, GP 128.

What is the difference between metformin hcl 850 & metformin her 1000? ## Hi Guzman, To answer your question Metformin HCL stands for "Hydrochloride", which from what I could gather, is used as a base to make the pills water-soluble.

You can learn more about th...
