Took in 2004 but had to stop due to blood sugars not being high enough. It, however, is the final chance I have at oral diabetic drugs because of my bad reactions to others. (I am the 1%) I have not had any problems since being put back on it in March.

I've been taking it for about 6 months and it tends to bring my blood sugar down too much. I also take metoformin with it. I have to watch my sugar every 2 hours to be sure I havent dropped too low after a meal.

I used to be on Actos, my doctor took me off due to the bad press...love this pill. My readings are right on target (better than actos) and it cost less! Can't get any better.

My doctor switched me from Glipizide to this. I took it for 13 days and was so constipated it took double doses of laxatives twice to clear my bowels. I am normally very regular. I stopped taking it.

I haven't found this drug to be very effective reducing my after meal glucose. I take Janamet twice a day and try to stick with a low glycemic diet.
