HI, Mohan! How are you?

You say that taking two tablets seems to be okay, but what are you basing that on? Are you checking your blood sugar levels regularly?

These tablets contain the active ingredient Metformin and it usually causes diarrhea as a side effect, along with nausea, dizziness and flatulence. It really isn't known to cause constipation.

Are you taking anything else new? Are you eating a different diet now?
