The indigestion and vomiting you are experiencing are very common side effects of metformin, which is the active ingredient in both Glyciphage and Ziten M. Because your blood sugar levels remain high, your current regimen is not working well for you. Please consult your doctor promptly to discuss alternative medications. They can transition you to other glucose-lowering options that do not contain metformin?such as DPP-4 inhibitors alone or SGLT2 inhibitors?to control your blood sugar comfortably and safely.
