The last Metformin we received had 43 31 on the pill. Before that is said 93 48. The new pill is not working. Manufactre is Teva. Any suggestions?

Does the 4331 pill have an hourglass logo in front of 4331 and 500 on the other side? If so this is Metformin 500 mg. The 93 48 pill, 93 on one side and 48 on the other is also Metformin 500 mg. Since it is the same drug and the same milligrams, they both should be just as effective.

I double checked and 93 48 is Metformin 500 mg. Was there a lapse in between these pills?

The metformin with 4331 seemed to work fine but when I got the 93/48 version my wife's blood sugar spiked way high every time she took one. I can't figure this out but she goes from 130 to 220 just by taking a metformin. This never used to happen. Could these be counterfeit drugs?? The guy at Walgreens thinks I'm nuts. Help.
