For Diabetes, Type 2 “I have had bad reactions to metformin in the past but my doctor insisted on my trying Actosplus Met. After a few months I had the same bad reactions. Right now I’m struggling to keep my sugars under control.”

For Diabetes, Type 2 “I have been taking ActosPlus Met 15/850 for Type 2 Diabetes for approximately 3 years. My HbA1C has been steady between 6.0 and 6.3. If I’m having side-effects, they are not noticeable. The price, however, must put a smile on the pharmaceutical company CEO’s face. It would be nice to see it go generic!”
