Sheryl Posted January 13, 2015 Share Posted January 13, 2015 That is not AFAIK slow release. Extended release preps are higher than 500 mg dose. Glocophage XR (750mg and 1000 mg) Have you tried being sure to take with food? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sheryl Posted January 14, 2015 Share Posted January 14, 2015 Sorry, no I don't. They are an imported brand so will not be cheap. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kitsch22 Posted January 14, 2015 Share Posted January 14, 2015 That is not AFAIK slow release. Extended release preps are higher than 500 mg dose. Glocophage XR (750mg and 1000 mg) Have you tried being sure to take with food? It was actually "Glucophage" when last prescribed for me in the Kingdom.
