> Metformin is used for people with type 2 diabeties (sp) i was given it yrs ago for my pcos, they give it to ppl whom are obese, i too have put on loads of weight with my remeron, i may go bk on the metformin to help with my weight too, it a very safe drug.. but bad side affect for me was lightheadedness...
Thanks for the info. How many mg's did you take? I have also heard that it causes stomach upset and the runs which I am not looking forward to. I still haven't taken it yet since I want to research it more. I need to make a decision soon because I don't want to gain any more weight yet don't want to part with the Zyprexa.
