Yeah - I have that, too. I heard that drinking a big glass of water while drinking anything with alcohol helps. I have that wth real sugary desserts sometimes, too. The alcohol does affect you more with the Glucophage, so be careful. I avoid the alcohol because it makes me feel woozy even after a little bit. I have always been a light weight drinker to begin with. Might ask your doctor or pharmacist. The label and drug information says to stay away from alcohol. Scary, huh! Ruth ;-)
