All I know is it is Metformin. If there are different brands, I am not aware of that. The prescription bottle says "Metformin", so I assume it is not generic. It is the same one I've been taking since I learned I have Type 2 Diabetes almost a year ago. I am SO done with this stupid disease! IT HAS RUINED MY LIFE! Now, thanks to the medication, I can't even stand the smell of myself! I'm isolated. IT SUCKS!
I'm over this dumb disease, as well! I can relate to how you are feeling. I wish I could turn the calendar back to mid 2007, before I was diagnosed.
I don't think I smell from the Metformin, per se (but will be asking my husband later!), but I have noticed that the last two bottles I've gotten have REEKED of urine when I opened them. It's enough to make me GAG! I dread having to take them every day. (I thought I might have ticked the pharmacist off or something, and he was just getting back at me, if you know what I mean! Come to think of it, they never have my 'scrip ready on time! Maybe it takes a day for the urine to dry...)
