Glumetza Information
Read information about Glumetza below to learn about its common uses. If you have questions about this medicine, please consult with your doctor or pharmacist and be sure to inform them of all the medications you are currently taking.
Glumetza is used alongside a healthy diet and regular exercise to control blood sugar levels in people with type 2 diabetes. By lowering high blood sugar, it helps reduce the risk of kidney damage, nerve problems, and other diabetes complications. It works by changing the way the body responds to naturally-produced insulin and reducing the amount of glucose produced in the liver. Most people who need this medication take it once a day with food and plenty of water.
Glumetza sometimes causes mild stomach problems, such as nausea, vomiting, and stomach pain. If you have stomach problems that last a long time or return after going away, stop taking Glumetza and tell your doctor right away, as this may be a sign of a more serious problem called lactic acidosis. Other signs of lactic acidosis include dizziness, difficulty breathing, an irregular heartbeat, numbness in limbs, and muscle pain. Call your doctor right away if you have any of these side effects, or if you experience rapid weight gain or flu-like symptoms.
Glumetza is a brand name, long-acting version of metformin. While there is a generic metformin drug, there is not an exact generic equivalent to Glumetza. Other brand name formulations of metformin include Glucophage, Fortamet, and Riomet. If your doctor prescribes one of these medications or any other diabetes drugs that aren’t covered by your insurance, use our site to get discounts of up to 75%.
