For Diabetes, Type 2 "OMG, completely and utterly dreadful. If you have a strong gag reflex you will never get it down. It tastes disgusting..nauseating, do yourself a favor and take regular Metformin (Not extended release) and chop that baby up, add applesauce, and it's a quick, pleasant swallow, just slightly bitter...can't compare to the horrid taste of this stuff. Side effects are another story..."
