Are the side effects worse for people who don’t really have diabetes or those not truly obese?
I think it’s the way these folks are being prescribed it. The SO (diabetic) was prescribed it by his endocrinologist and they slowly titrated him up, encouraged him to increase fiber in his diet to avoid the bowel issues, etc. His only side effect he’s been getting is mild nausea that’s been helped by a ginger supplement.
He was reading in a forum with others who have been prescribed it that the ones doing it for weight loss were prescribed the full dose out of the gate and received no real education on how to manage side effects. It seemed those were the people who were really struggling with side effects.
The diabetic meds the SO was on had worse side effects (Metformin in particular). He’s off of all of them now.

Berberine works like metformin.
