I'm a bit concerned because my sister's GP has prescribed her Gliclazide 60mg (modified release), one tablet in the morning. But she is also taking Metformin 1000mg twice a day (morning & evening). Do many diabetics take both metformin and glicazide together? I am worried about her risk for hypoglycaemia using both of these medicines.

Sometimes taking medicine makes me worry....

[@angeloamorosa3534]

Gliclazide can take after breakfast?

[@d_girl17]

I take it in the eveing after dinner. Is it ok?

[@MrJaxDemon]

No. Never take before bed. If your bloods drop to low, you might not wake up. Use during the day unless you're a night worker.
