I take my metformin and glipizide in the morning and again before bed. Lantus at night, before bedtime, and all my other meds then, too. It's a lot of pills to swallow at one time, yuck. I find injecting less unpleasant than all the pills, I wish I could take all my meds that way, LOL! In addition to the metformin and glipizide I also take Lexapro, neurontin, tramadol, benicar, and Yasmin.

Hi,
I take my Byetta an hour before breakfast and Dinner.
I take 1000mg of metformin with breakfast.also my humalog
At lunch time I take my aticand,propranalol.(I was told to take non diabetic drugs 1 hour before Byetta or 4 hours after)humalog and 1000mg of metformin.
At around 6pm I take my lantus and with Dinner humalog and another 1000mg metformin (so I don't think 2000mgs is to much ) Then before bed I take 1/2 an aspirin and propanalol
Some days I feel like all I do is pop pills and some days I think
s*** I have forgotten them!
