Hi guys,
Thanks for the responses.
I'll advise it could just be a result of increased fluid consumption at night before bed. Sounds logical!!
FYI, are blood tests reported the following:
WAS NOW
Lipids 6.4 6.2
HBA1C 50 45
Urea 54
B12 1000
Serum cholesterol 7.3 6..2
Weight 47.3 43
Height 5ft 5ft
BMI 20 18.5
On another note, what is the difference if any between:
- Metformin Sustained Release
- Metformin Extended Release
- Metformin Modified Release (what she has been prescribed)
And what dosage of the MR do you think she should be on? As mentioned previously she is currently on 100mg (500mg x2) of normal Metformin per day, but has just been prescribed Metformin Modified Release (whatever that is!?) at a dosage of 500mg twice a day.
So my question is, why has my Doc prescribed the same dosage for the time-release Metformin as the normal Metformin?
Any ideaS?
Cheers,
Mike
