PCOD. Prescribed Methben, Folic Acid Till Getting Pregnant. Purpose Of Methben? Side Effects?
Hi, My Doctor has said that I have PCOD but nothing to worry. She asked me to take Metben 500mg twice a day ( morning and night) along with folic acid (night) till I get pregnant. My question is do I really have to take Metben TWICE a day till I get pregnant ? Can the dosage be reduced to 1 per day? What exactly is the purpose of Metben and does it have any side effects.
Hello, Thanks for the query to H.C.M.Forum. Metformine 500 mg is a very good and potent drug for PCOD in your case. This drug usually reduces the size of Poly Cystic Ovarian Disease that'e why your doctor prescribed this drug in proper dosage. In your case hypogycemia, rash, malabsorption of Vitamin B complex, chest discomfort, flushing palpitation chills. In my opinion conceive as early as possible. After few days the drug will adjust in your body and you get desired result , so please take it as advised your doctor. Good luck. Dr. HET
