Advice & Tips
this medication worked well in helping to control my diabetes but the whole time I was taking it I had severe diarrhea which means if I had to go out I had to plan my trips around gas stations with a bathroom that I knew where the washrooms were at because there would be no time to look for one so my doctor put me on insulin.
