Interesting Question

I had a bookstore gift certificate and decided to use it towards the purchase of these books on Diabetes.





Then I got these glucose tablets from the pharmacy for husband M, I have been educating myself on the disease and discovered they are a good thing to keep handy in case his blood sugar goes low (less than 4 mmol/L for whatever reason). He is supposed to take 4 of these 4g tablets and retest his blood sugar after 15 minutes. Hopefully he never has to use them.

The interesting thing yesterday is when M noticed his slow release metformin tablet came out in his poop! We were alarmed then I thought to check google and the answer is that it is just the shell after the drug was absorbed, and that it is one of the most common questions. What would we do without google, it saved a call to the doctor!
