Another?/Metformin?: How long ago did you start the metformin? It can a while for some people to get used to and some have to go very slow and start at 500 mg once a day for a while, the extended release form can help and taking it with food can help. I would not take the metformin and Vitamin together. It is also common for Vitamins to cause upset stomachs and some people have to try a few to find one they tolerate.
