Hello, Brandy! How are you?

From what you've listed, one is time released and one isn't. The time released formulation helps some people get better control of their blood sugar levels.

The FDA lists the typical side effects of this medication as possibly including nausea, dizziness, flatulence and stomach pain.

Is there anything else I can help with?
