A member asked:
Could you tell me what happens if you overdose on metformin when you're not diabetic?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Nothing: It's very hard or even impossible to overdose on metformin. At higher than recommended doses, particularly if you don't take it regularly for diabetes, you will develop nausea and diarrhea and won't be able to take any more. Have you thought about talking with a psychiatrist?
