Just like any other drug even Gluconorm has side effects which includes back pain, constipation, diarrhea, headache, joint pain and many more. But benefit is more than risk as diabetes medication are very helpful in preventing harmful effects of high blood sugar over a period of time. If you have any serious side effect of the medication then visit your doctor and ask him to get it changed with other medication.
