The reasons you hear all the commercials and explaining all of this came out
during the HIPAA Privacy Laws, which also includes that drug companies must
post in all media forms the side affects to the drugs.

  These drug companies want our money.  Instead of focusing on more cures,
  they keep us alive-- just alive-- so we keep paying for drugs!  LOL

  um if you listen to all the commercials on tv they cause a lot of issues
  as well.

  The problem is that it causes Cancer in Mice and Rats and it hasn't yet
  been proved that is causes other issues in humans.

  So I would worry more about you keeping your sugars down and the diet
  level, the stress alone will give you problems of worrying about it.

  I am on transplant drugs for my kidney transplant, and every year I have
  to get check for Cancer, I know the risks involved, but guess what I am
  not on dialysis and haven't been in 6 years and I am alive.

    Hi I have been on Metformin for 8 years.  I have read now and then
  that 
    Metformin over time damages the liver and can cause some memory
  problems. 
    But I have noticed none of those in myself, and annual physical
  evaluations, 
    plus diabetes evaluations every four months have shown nothing
  negative 
    except for my troubles keeping calory intake evenly distributed.
  KnowKnock 
    on wood!

    However, research on meds is ongoing, so I will keep watching out for 
    official indications of medication interactions. - Bill Lewis
