Glucophage (metformin) is an oral diabetes medicine that can be prescribed to control blood sugar levels in people with type 2 diabetes. Glucophage can be also used in combination with insulin, but this can be decided only by a qualified professional. At the beginning of the treatment, as your body adjusts to the dose prescribed, you are likely to experience one of some of these mild side effects: mild nausea, headache, gas, general weakness and stomach pain. You do not need to report these common side effects unless they persist, change in intensity or worsen over time.

Your doctor needs to know your full medical history before prescribing Glucophage. You need to mention any health conditions that can potentially interfere with the treatment, for example, history of heart disease or liver disease. While taking this medicine you need to watch out for the symptoms of a rare life-threatening condition called lactic acidosis. If you experience lightheadedness, muscle pain, cold feeling, stomach pain, shortness of breath, slow heart rate, sleepiness and fainting get emergency medical assistance. Glucophage can affect the accuracy of some tests. Make sure the doctor knows in advance that you are taking this medicine.
