Since you are taking Glycomet SR (metformin), exercising can sometimes lower your blood sugar too much, leading to nausea. Additionally, metformin itself can cause mild stomach upset, which intense physical exertion can make more noticeable. Sometimes, taking your Remylin D or metformin on an empty stomach before a workout, or simple dehydration, can also trigger this feeling. Try having a small, carb-rich snack before exercising and stay well-hydrated. If this continues, please consult with your doctor to monitor your blood sugar levels.

Regarding your medications, Glycomet (metformin) is generally considered safe during breastfeeding, as only tiny amounts pass into breast milk and are highly unlikely to affect your toddler. Reclide XR 60 (gliclazide) also passes into breast milk in very small quantities, but carries a slight risk of lowering your baby's blood sugar. Since your child is older and eating solid foods, this risk is very low. However, please monitor them for unusual sleepiness. I highly recommend discussing these medications with your doctor to ensure the safest plan for you and your baby.

Your upper right belly pain is much more commonly related to issues like gallbladder spasms or gallstones, which are more frequent with obesity and PCOS. Sometimes, kidney stones can also cause radiating discomfort. Your past medications, including Glycomet SR (metformin), Normoz, and Eva Care syrup, are safe and not linked to this pain. I highly recommend consulting your doctor for a simple abdominal ultrasound to check your gallbladder and kidneys.

While your current numbers are stable, diabetes management requires long-term monitoring. Sometimes, dietary changes alone are enough, but other times, a mild generic medication with fewer side effects might still be beneficial to protect your body. Please consult your doctor before making a final decision. They can check your HbA1c and safely guide your next steps.

Glycomet 1 gm and Zoform 1 gm SR both contain metformin and are commonly used for the control of type 2 diabetes. The main difference is that the sustained-release form releases the medicine more slowly, which may help some people experience less stomach irritation, bloating, acidity, or loose stools than with regular metformin tablets. Whether you can switch between the two depends on your blood sugar control, stomach tolerance, kidney function, meal pattern, and overall health. Some people tolerate sustained-release medicines better, while others may need the same medicine continued if their sugar levels are already stable. Even though both medicines are similar, changing formulations without medical advice is not recommended because the dose timing and body response may differ. Regular meals, daily walking, proper sleep, stress management, and reducing sweets and refined carbohydrates remain important, along with diabetes medicines, for better natural sugar stability. Talk to your doctor before changing the medicine, especially if you have kidney problems, stomach issues, fluctuating sugar levels, or repeated low sugar symptoms during treatment.

While Glycomet-SR (metformin) is excellent for managing PCOD, it usually takes a few months to regulate your cycle. Since you have missed your period for over two months, your doctor prescribed Primolut-N (norethisterone) to safely shed the uterine lining. While waiting a few more days is generally safe, taking the Primolut-N as prescribed is a reliable way to 'reset' your cycle safely. Once you get your period, the metformin can continue working to help make your future cycles more regular. Please follow up with your doctor.
