Is Taking Metformin Advisable While On Duphaston?

Hi, I had spotting between my periods. I have a 28 days cycle. I was diagnosed with PCOS. I was given duphaston for 21 days. Then after my periods i was advised to take metformin. I got confused and started to take metformin and duphaston at the same time. Again i got my bleeding . I think its my periods because its my due date as per my last cycle. Does taking these two tablets at a same time will cause any health problems?

Hello,

There is no harm in taking the medicines together, still, you can keep some time gap like an hour or so between these medicines.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Take care

Regards,
