I'm on 500mg Met x 2 daily. I have found that by taking my last dose just before bed (with a small snack) that it has really helped getting my morning numbers under control.

I'm not a Doctor and if you wish to consider this, then please seek your Doctor's approval.

I have also heard of people having better success with morning numbers by using Metformin ER (extended release).
