Is glucophage xr 500mg still safe to use?? please advise thank you

Glucophage : Glucophage or metformin is the most common diabetic medication world wide. It is common that some people have short term diarrhea which resolves. In rare circumstances in some people with significant kidney issues, it can cause an acidic state in the body. In general, it is great medication I often recommend, and if I can, I use it first with diabetics.
