User Reviews for glyburide oral

The only reason for my difficulty in using this drug, is that it apparantly does not come in 7-1/2mg tablet. Has this changed? I have to take 6 - 2-1/2mg pills a day, and usually end up droping one and sometimes losing it.

I was given this medication in the er when my bs went above 400 and all I have done since I started it is feel like I could hack up a lung. I have broke out in hives, and it makes my stomach hurt. I am also on Byetta 5mcg injected twice a day and Lantus Solostar 30 units at night. I have not even been glyburide a week.

Taking 5 mg a day along with metformin 1000 mg twice daily have have alot of low bs at least 4 to 5 times weekly if not more. A low can come out of nowhere. Not good. Do anyone else have this problem?

My doctor put me on this medicine and I aways have a terrible cough from using it. He has me on 4 pills a day and this medicine has done nothing for me but make me sick. I have to use an allergy medicine because of all the side affects and this makes my sugar go up. It is a no win situation using it. I am letting the doctor know about what I have been living like for the past year. I am tired of feeling like I have bronchitis everyday. Not good for me or my liver.

WELL IT WORKS BETTER THAN MEFORMIN 850MG x2 DAILY. ACCORDING TO THE REPORT ON SIDE EFFECT IT AFFECTS THE LIVER SEVERLY??? wELL I have lost a lot of weigh. I wish I could gain at least 10 pòunds. I alSO use pomarose leaves as a tea, if I eaT AFTER 8Pm.

I have gestational diabetes, and I take this medication 3 times a day. I have gone from taking only one dose at night to also taking a lunch dose and dinner dose and upping the dosage of my night tablet. This could all be due to the diabetes getting worse the later in my pregnancy I get.

Efficacy improved W/ use of Dextrin in my food.

my sugar drops too low, i am on metformin also. ive tried taking it at different times and always within 2 hrs i have a low sugar episode, i may have to go back to actos.

I have taken glyburide oral for 2 years. I notice now, that my blood sugars are getting low. around 65, that is causing me to experience some dizziness, and at times increases my vision. This is a concern. My doctor told me to take 1/2 a tablet. This has helped. Why did my glucose levels start to get lower? Is this a side effect?

Broke out in severe hives after 1 week and it took several weeks to clear. Very dangerous for me.

Every morning 2 hours after taking the medication, I experience a drop in blood sugar-sometimes down to 45-50

Took this medicine, 2x day, along with metformin. seemed Ok. About 9 months ago I got a terrible cough like I smoked 3 packs a day. However, I don't smoke. I wnet to the doctor, had antibiotics, chest xray, ear nose and throat with endoscopy, steroids. the cough was so bad that people didn't want to be around me as I seemed to have some horrible disease. I had a lot a sputum in my mouth and coughed all night long also. Just yesterday I was out with a friend and we noticed that I wasn't coughing. then I remember that I had not taken the glyburide that morning or that night. It is now the next day and I haven't been coughing or taking the glyburide. One thing that I do now remember is that at first I had pink tablets and about 6 months or so they stqrting giving me yellow tablets. I don't know whether it was a dye in the meds or what but I don't ever want to have a cough like that again. I truly thought that i HAD CANCER WAS GOING TO DIE!Read More Read Less

it was prescrided to me to help glusophage control my type2 diabetes

Just currently diagnosed with diabetes, first day taking this drug, blood pressure went up & very tired. Had no previous problem with bp until glyburide. End of 1st day blood sugar 112.

I have been on 2.5mg glyburide & 500mg of metformin twice a day for two years.My doctor discontinued the metformin and my BS went through the roof.He said to double the glyburide!!

this medicine has lowered my A1C level to 6.2. My blood sugar levels have been much lower. You have to eat regularly though, because I have experienced dizziness, hunger and shaking if I don't eat enough. I don't have the problems with nausea and the such I had with metformin. So I make sure I eat right, and keep much closer track of my glucose levels.

overall very satisfied. BS reading in am always 120 or below. however, I have gained weight, and it does make me jittery sometimes and also lightheaded. Don't like lightheaded feeling especially if I'm out somewhere. It is very unnerving. I am only pre-diabetic, so doc put me on 1.25 glyberide, and seems to be helping my A1C just fine. However, not happy with these side effects.
