DOSE AND METHOD OF ADMINISTRATION
LIFE THREATENING LACTIC ACIDOSIS CAN OCCUR DUE TO ACCUMULATION OF
METFORMIN. RISK FACTORS
INCLUDE RENAL IMPAIRMENT, OLD AGE AND DOSES OF METFORMIN ABOVE 2 G PER
DAY
(SEE SPECIAL
WARNINGS AND PRECAUTIONS FOR USE).
It is important that the tablets are taken in divided doses with
meals.
MONOTHERAPY AND COMBINATION WITH OTHER ORAL ANTIDIABETIC AGENTS IN
ADULTS WITH NORMAL RENAL
FUNCTION
Initially 500 mg should be taken once or twice a day and, if
necessary, increased over a few weeks
up to a maximum of 1 g three times per day. The dose should be
titrated with gradual dose
increments until the desired effect is obtained. 500 mg three times a
day is often sufficient to obtain
diabetic control. Cont
