Increase your intake of Magnesium. It will relax your muscles. Also take CoQ10. Depletion by Metformin causes muscle aches and weakness
Has anyone had problems with their throat and mouth while taking Janumet . I would get this ball of phlegm in my throat, and my teeth would ache and now sometimes my mouth will become very very dry and I would get a tin taste or a burning feeling in my mouth.
Been on it for years with no real side effects. One of the lucky ones I guess.
if you had problems with metformin becareful, Ihad a bad side effect due to it ,
Ive been taken metformin for my diabetes. however side effects on my stomach arent good, ive tried to take it with food and it dont work out any better.
what other medicines are their to help with diabetes and how to take them?

thanks
