Yes metformin can: In my experience have found people frequently get diarrhea while on metformin(Glucophage). By far is due not following diet well enough,to much carbohydrates will GREATLY increase chance and severity of the loose stool or diarrhea. Secondly,some people are insensitive to the metformin-really small percentage. Remember,no diabetic medication means you can eat whatever you desire!!!
