I had been on Metformin, 500 mg twice a day since 2009. My A1C went from 7.2 to 6.4 over several years, and looking 30 lbs. But, couldn't get it down any further. My doctor switched me to Glipizide one time a day. My A1C has been 5.8 now for 6 months. I get checked every 3 months. You need to really work with your doctor. That higher amount of Metformin is way too much.
