Hello.
Thanks for the query to HCM Forum.
Glycomet gp 1 i.e.glimipide+metformine is a most suitable drug for diabetes ( NIDDM or type 2).
This drug should be taken in between food or after food so that hypoglycemia don't causes any untoward effect.
This is a safe drug , you can use it.
Still you feel any dizziness or nausea , vomiting , excessive sweating consult your doctor and get his opinion.
Good luck.
