Hello sir, thanks for the query.
I have gone through your query and understood your concerns.
Sir, the problems you have mentioned are common in the initial days of taking Metformin and Diabetes.
Take Metformin 10 minutes after eating. If you are doing it already, continue the same.
Take one Tablet Rabiprazole DSR daily early in the morning before eating for two weeks.
Also check for sugar levels and Hb%. One of which could be reason for drowsiness.
Also start walking daily for atleast 20 minutes.
