Diabetes Forums (Page 83)

I called the pharmacy that I always order from and they they told me they had no recalls on these 500 mg Metformion tabs by TEVA and there was nothing they could do. ## Joyce,i cant believe if the vitamins smelled bad,the pharmacist wouldnt refund your money back to u. ## Metformin is not a vitamin, it is an oral antidiabetic medication. Actually, it is completely normal for this medication to have a very bad odor. Many companies just manage to keep you from smelling it by putting a coating on the tablets, so the smell never reaches your nostrils. In this case, these pills may not have the coating or it may not be as thick as normal. Are there any other questions or comments?

Any and all information of what this may be would be very helpful, please? Sincerely, One Very Concerned Parent ## I found a small pink tablet with an animal that looked like a horse on one side and one the other it looked like a regular adult tablet. I found it on the train. What could this be? ## This def. sounds like it's ecstasy...type "ecstasy pill" into Google and check images. ## It's Prandin, a brand name diabetes medication. We just spent about two hours in the pharmacy trying to figure out what the "pill with the moose on it" was. Turns out it is a bull, the logo for Novo Nordisk. Definitely NOT ecstasy, lol.
