METFORMIN. Made by Merck, sold as Glucophage. Another possible miracle drug? My struggle with alcohol became BAD over the past five years. I'm not diabetic (tho diabetes runs in my family), but taking this every night has helped me kick the bottle FOR GOOD. Anyone else? TRY THIS if you need it!

You may have had some parasites.
May have had poisonous blood sugar drug too. IVM gave me the squirts first time, but not since. Probably because of parasites. Metformin gave me violent gravy blasts every time. If you guys find salvation in it, great! I'm just sharing my experiences. Even if wrong about it being bad, many people will not be able to take it. I'm hard pressed to believe that it is a miracle drug.
Not a fan of it either. Hard on the kidneys.
I have been on it for a few years and have definitely experienced the intestinal turmoil. If I take it before eating breakfast I almost can’t not throw up. Taken after breakfast results in a guaranteed poopoo within an hour. Though I have heard from a pharm tech friend that this is only really an issue with the generic metformin due to its delivery mechanism. The pill basically inflates in your gut and scrapes along the sides of your gut for it to be absorbed. You can actually see the pills in your poop, I thought I had a parasite or something the first time I saw one.
Did the same to me intestinally but it did regulate pcos and type 2 a1c beautifully as well. I stopped when pregnant and breastfeeding. It passes thru milk and they have no studies for what that might do to an infant. Sucks that my periods are all over the place again and I had to start insulin in its place but small price for baby. I do keto too
For GI upset take as little as what won’t cause that. Like 1/10th of the pill and raise every two weeks until side effect goes away.
You can also, ahem, use Metformin as a suppository and yes it’s fine to take that way all meds can be given rectally. It absorbs way faster but this is only for supplements as anyone’s regular medication needs to be for sure regulated strictly.
In that case it might come right out but it works like a charm, lol. Once your gut is empty you can try again but I do so at night and add a little water. Yep I’m stubborn!
We know about rectal routes in medicine in nursing because they used that route a lot before there were more meds to try, because people would get an upset stomach.
