It's okay to use amaryl(glimepiride) med. for pcos right?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
No & yes: Hi. The diabetes med that works for PCOS per se is metformin (glitazones work too). However, since PCOS increases risk of type 2 diabetes, you can of course use glimepiride to treat the diabetes if you have PCOS & type 2 diabetes.
