Ratio Vs Apo Metformin 500mg

Hello - recently I moved and changed pharmacies. My renewal for Metformin from the new drug store says Apo-Metformin 500mg. My old medication from previous Drug store says Ratio-Metformin 500 mg. Is there a difference in how these work?

No, they are just manufactured by different companies, but the medication and how it works is the same.

The U.S. FDA lists the typical side effects as possibly including nausea, dizziness, headache, stomach pain, flatulence, and diarrhea.

Is there anything else I can help with?
