Metformin is a medication used to treat Type 2 diabetes. It works by decreasing the amount of sugar that your liver produces and by helping your body to better use the insulin it produces. Metformin can also help to lower your risk of developing heart disease, and it may even improve fertility in women with polycystic ovarian syndrome. In addition, metformin has been shown to be effective in preventing or delaying the onset of Type 2 diabetes in people at high risk for the condition. If you have Type 2 diabetes, metformin may be an important part of your treatment plan.

One of the most common side effects is gastrointestinal upset, including nausea, vomiting, and diarrhea. For this reason, it is important to take metformin with food. If you experience severe or persistent gastrointestinal upset, you should contact your doctor. Other potential side effects include headache, fatigue, and dizziness. If you experience any of these side effects, you should speak to your doctor.

Metformin is typically taken two or three times a day, with or without food. The exact dosage varies depending on the individual, but it is generally started at 500 mg per day and increased gradually over time.

Metformin is a medication often prescribed to treat type 2 diabetes. In addition to helping to lower blood sugar levels, metformin has a number of other potential health benefits associated with better control of blood sugar levels.

Metformin can cause a modest reduction in weight in patients with Type 2 Diabetes, most likely due to side effects, like a decreased appetite and an upset stomach. However, this should never be a replacement for proper diet and exercise.

I’m recommending if you can use NextRX to go for it. When my insurance would not cover a medication I needed and it was going to cost me over $500, the pharmacist, Kierstyn, made sure to research if the could get the medication. She was able to get it for me for as low as $35.00. I was super shocked excited that I was going to be able to get my medication in order to get on track with my health. Thank you for all that you do!! Read Less

It’s kinda of insane that they can fill my prescription WITHOUT insurance and it’s still cheaper. I’ve gotten some cream for eczema that would have cost me 200 dollars WITH insurance and only pa ... Read More

Next RX is the best!! They do not take your insurance, but the cost is surprising. It is about a third of the price. I highly recommend them to all of my friends. The staff is friendly and helpful too ... Read More

The staff are always extreme nice and helpful. I have been picking prescriptions up there for someone else, and decided to ask about transferring my prescriptions there. They don’t take insurance, and my prescriptions cost 1/3 of what I was paying at Walgreens with my insurance. Amazing! I highly recommend NextRx! Read Less

I found this little Gem this year. I absolutely love NextRX. My prescriptions are half of what they cost through OptumRx or other pharmacies. It’s across town for me, but it’s worth the drive. The people are friendly, helpful and have been very fast filling my prescriptions. I recommended them to several people, and I even told my doctor to mention them to any of their patients that might have expensive prescriptions that they could possibly get cheaper here. Read Less

NEVER have I had a pharmacy be as helpful and accommodating and CHEAP as NextRx. If you are self pay or do not have insurance, USE THIS PHARMACY. My scripts are LITERALLY half the cost as when I would get them filled at Schnucks CVS. Also, one of the medication’s I take has a supply issue. They have had no problem reaching out to my doctor to adjust the prescription to accommodate what they have in stock. Thank you so much next RX for keeping me in the prescriptions that I need to help me live a successful life! Read Less

Always friendly and knowledgeable! Not to mention that they save me a good deal of money on the same drugs I had been paying 3 times more for through my insurance company. Crazy but true.

I’ve had the occasion to use this pharmacy twice. An antibiotic for myself and a two week supply of antibiotics for my dog. My medication was $5, my best friend’s was $7. You will not find this price in any other retail pharmacy. Most copays are not this low. You will pay less here and be treated well. There is no hassle with insurance either (which is why it’s so cheap). This is truly one of Columbia‘s best kept secrets (but it won’t be a secret for long). Read Less

Wow! I am so excited to use NextRx! I just took my list of medications from my pharmacy into the pharmacist at NextRx, and my prescription costs will go DOWN $150 A MONTH!! I can't believe it. You must check it out for yourselves; it is more than worth your time and money! The staff are all polite and helpful too. Read Less
