Have you tried breaking the pill in 1/2 or switching to the other forum of
Glucophage?

I was diagnosed on March 6 with PCOS. My Dr. immediately put me on an
oral Contraceptive and Glucophage 500 mg. a day. Much of the research
I have read on the Internet and in books says that most patients should
start with 500 mg. twice daily and if they experience no GI problem,
they should increase to 850 mg. twice daily. Am I on too small of a
dosage? I have only been on it for a couple of weeks now and am still
getting the shakes and feeling week a while after I eat. I can't really
get some good help from my Dr. as the nurse said that 500 mg. is what
he usually prescribes. What should I do?
