[QUOTE="dnfuss, post: 143345, member: 15487"] It wasn't designed to be taken that way, and it might be safe and effective or it might not. But why do so? Metformin is a very cheap drug. I would just purchase some of the instant-release form. Its mechanism of action is only generally understood, but metformin does [U]not[/U] block the absorption of carbs (there are such drugs, e.g., Acarbose, but they block only complex carbs, not simple sugars). Metformin is generally most effective in conjunction with a low-carb diet. In fact, taking it when on a high-carb diet tends to cause gastric distress (diarrhea, indigestion, nausea, etc.). [/QUOTE]
