I just started taking metformin for type 2 diabetes and was wondering just how long the acute diarrhea typically lasts...... I'm frustrated because I really want to get on top of my health, my last a1C was 9.6 (😬).. but the metformin side effects is making it really hard to want to keep taking it😑

It can last 1-2 weeks, however for some it doesn't stop past that two week mark in which case you should see your GP as that means your body won't be absorbing any nutrition as it's exiting your body too quickly and you'll become deficient in other things so keep an eye on it
