I am having problems with Zydus brand Metformin. I had been on Metformin by teva until recently when my insurance changed my drug company to Medco. I got the Metformin by Zydus. They did not work. My blood sugar went up and I started to have other symptoms. Since I had about 20 pills by teva left, I went back on that. Sure enough my blood sugar became normal again. So, I call Medco pharmacist and I was told to get my doctor to prescribe Metformin and specify that the generics have to come from teva. I also got 1 month supply from the Brand name, the original one, not generic. I am mailing the prescription and see what happens. I will keep you posted.
Good luck!

Is metformin a generic?
Yes, metformin is a generic medication. It is commonly used to treat type 2 diabetes by helping to control blood sugar levels. Metformin is available under various brand names, but it is widely prescribed in its generic form due to its effectiveness and lower cost.
What does GEN mean on a metformin pill?
The "GEN" on a metformin pill indicates that the medication is a generic version of metformin. Generic medications contain the same active ingredients as their brand-name counterparts and are considered bioequivalent, meaning they work the same way in the body. Metformin is commonly prescribed for managing type 2 diabetes by helping to control blood sugar levels. Always consult with a healthcare professional if you have questions about your medications.
What if your prescription metformin has hcl on it can you take it without the hcl on the prescription?
Yes. Metformin hydrochloride is the full generic or chemical name, but it is commonly just called "metformin" to make things simpler. HCl is the chemical abbreviation for hydrochloride. Metformin HCl is the same drug as "Glucophage" (the brand name)
