same i had it for the last year and half i had to space out the metformin it 4 times a day to stop that

Metformin gave me a year of irregular diaorrhea i have to take glicazide now

Not real low, I just changed taking my Metformin in a.m. and after dinner, and taking the Glipizide at bedtime which is helping me tremendously with the a.m. blood glucose number (94-112) for the past two weeks. I did the home test today on the A1C(I get labs done in two weeks) and my number was 7.0(still having trouble getting it down in the 6 range). any suggestions on that?

I'll talk to my doctor about that. I think that the Byetta I inject has a side effect with the Gliperide mostly.

I don't have a problem with really low A1Cs but I am only on Metformin. 1000 mg twice a day. Some days I forget.
