Re: Metformin 'XL'?

Sorry, havent heard about that at all Cassandra. My only thought is that Met is broken down into three dosages per day to keep a fairly constant level in your bloodstream. I wonder how the 'one off' pill would work with that? Maybe some of the sites for diabetes have some more info - I will keep an eye out, if I find anything I will post it.
