Dr. Sam, I was reading a response you wrote to someone about metformin doses and had a question for you. My endo started me on Metformin Feb. 12, I started taking 1 tablet, 500mg a day for two weeks, then I was to start taking two tablets a day, 1000mg a day for two weeks, then 3 tablets, 1500mg a day for two weeks, then max out at 4 tablets, 2000mg a day, for as lonf as I take this medication. I have not been diagnosed as diabetic, or insulin resistant. From what I have read on the discussion boards, this seems like a high dose to me. Is this how it is normaly done? I don't see my endo again until the end of april, and as he is very difficult to get a hold of, I thought I would ask your opinion while I was waiting for him to return my call. Thanks, Jen
