Should Glycomet Be Continued In View Of Swelling Legs And Loose Stools?
Hi, My wife is 8months pregnant and she is consuming 1 tablet of glycomet 500mg a day. After started taking glycomet she is having swelling legs and loose stools. Before glycomet she used to have Dimet500. For past 2-3 weeks her new doctor recommended this glycomet. So pls tell us whether to continue glycomet or to discontinue or to check with her physician to change the tablet. Thanks Dina

Hello dear, thanks for trusting health care magic.
It is a common side effect of glycomet and she will be habituated to it in a couple of weeks.
Ask her to take it at night and drink ample amount of water daily.
In case you have any questions in future you can contact me directly on http://bit.ly/drmanishajain
