I do not believe that metformin is as popular now as it once was several years ago. do not hear much about it as years past, But I could be wrong.

tabs normally come 50mg

I also think you need to do much more research

ahhh ic

many will use with HGH cycle, some will use who do not want to get involved with insulin, you must maintain your carbs and DO NOT DRINK like my stupid stupid cow of a friend as it multiplies the alcohol many times over

Taking 500mg BD will suffice. Take with carb mea (especially directly post workout)

It's not an oral synthetic insulin. It actually just slows down the absorption of carbs from the gut. I never noticed anything with it.

Metformin improves (reduces) insulin resistance,
but also reduces carb absorption, so it's hard to use during a bulking cycle, with few absorbed carbs you get less calories, and less chance of gaining.

Its mainly used during a cutting cycle, or before a bulking cycle, so you start with a good insulin sensivity. Keep in mind that bulking cycles -or any period of increased calories- reduce your insulin sensivity.
