Can metformin cause diarrhea and stomach pain?
Yes, diarrhea and stomach pain are some of the side effects when you first start metformin, or if you eat a high-fat meal or snack while taking metformin. Starting with a low dose and increasing gradually, taking care to not overdo fatty foods, and (according to some) using the controlled release version of metformin can help reduce these side effects. In addition, stopping and starting metformin often will cause you to go through the initial period of side effects just as often, so be faithful in taking it as prescribed.

Metformin ER (extended-release) and metformin HCl (hydrochloride) are not exactly the same.

It's generally recommended to take metformin with meals to minimize these side effects and enhance its effectiveness. Always consult with a healthcare provider for personalized advice.
