Hi Linda, I was put on Gluc. in Oct. I just went to a new Dr. who switched me to Actos. I can't really tell you how it has been for me yet (only taken it 3 days) but the Dr. said he has seen better results with Actos than Gluc., esp. for those of us still ttc. He also said I should not have those terrible side affects with Actos, and I only take 1/day not 3 like the Gluc. Sorry I couldn't be of more help. I wish you well! Teresa
