Whoa. I take metformin. 1000 mg. x2 daily. Have for years. But I’m a pharmacological ignoramus - I never look at the inserts, I just put it with all my other meds and take what the doc tells me. Any other way of determining where mine came from?

I take the same.

It sounds like only extended release Metformin is affected, so I believe we are safe. Your prescription would say “Metformin ER” if it was Extended Release.

I think people usually take Metformin Extended Release once a day.
