if the biggest issue is taste, i can deal with that one! i have an ever present stash of minties to help with nausea, so i'll shake the taste pretty quick

just went onto a website to look up side effects - looks pretty much the same as everything else - probably won't notice them too much - have been noticing the effects from the metformin more lately - didn't have an issue when i was on 1000 but now i'm on 1700 (850mg twice daily) i seem to have a constant upset stomach - it's driving me nuts - but i guess it's a small price to pay!
