For Type 2 Diabetes "After one month, this medicine, Synjardy, brought my A1C down from 8.3 to 7.1. My glucose from 288 to 116. The only problem is that it is giving me a vaginal yeast infection, and it is severe. It goes away a week with meds and comes right back, so I will have to stop. Also, a little nausea. I was getting good results."

For Type 2 Diabetes "Been taking this medicine for five days, can’t sleep, have heart palpitations, nauseous, dizzy, and I respect other people who are successful. It just doesn’t work for me at all. I’m going back to Metformin, will exercise better. I think this stuff is awful, and it was $500."

For Type 2 Diabetes "My doctor gave me a coupon for a 14-day free trial of Synjardy. Previously, I had been on 1500 mg of metformin, and he wanted to get my A1C down to 6 or 7 from 8. Well, the first day I took it, I felt horrible. So tired, I slept on the couch. Felt weak, nauseous, had major abdominal pain. Took it for 3 more days, each day with the same horrible side effects. I thought I was getting sick with the flu or something, but then read the Synjardy product information. Every side effect I had was listed. Stopped taking the drug and felt absolutely fine again. I wish I could take it, but it made me feel absolutely horrible."
