Metformin
Good morning ladies. I have a question about metformin. I am awaiting insurance authorization for an IUI which will take a few weeks. In the meantime I have been perscribed metformin, 500 mg. I take 1 tablet a week, then 2 tablets in week 2 and then build up to 3 tablets in week 3. Does it matter what time of day I take the pills? In the insert with the meds it says at night time. Also, when I build up to 2 or 3 pills a day, do I take them all at the same time or spread them out? Thank you.

Re: Metformin
I always take them together in the morning after breakfast (when I take my other vitamins).

Re: Metformin
I suggest taking them after a meal bc it's easier on your stomach.

Re: Metformin
I take mine right before going to bed all at once - I'm taking 2 pills, each one 1000mg.
