Why do my feet hurt after metformin if there is no such side effect in the leaflet?

After taking metformin medication, my feet hurt a lot, it is difficult for me to walk. I put the fear and the pain passes, I can move. In the list of adverse reactions this event does not occur..... What's going on???? bullied Z

Good morning
I have the same problem, also because metformin hurt my feet a lot, and especially in the morning When I got up, the pain was the biggest in my fingers after stopping metformin, I felt much better in my feet, you could say, that they have no pain and are not so stiff. Clearly, I associate it with taking metformin

Not all side effects of drugs are known and described - if you associate taking the drug with the appearance of foot pain, I encourage you to report it to your doctor. Reporting side effects allows you to gather more information about the safety of medicines and update data about them, which can help other patients in the future. We wrote about how to report them here: https://www.gdziepolek.pl/artykuly/jak-i-dlaczego-zglaszac-dzialania-niepozadane Side effects of drugs can also be reported individually: https://www.urpl.gov.pl/pl/produkty-lecznicze/monitorowanie-bezpieczeństwa-leków/zg elk-side-effect-0

User questions and answers that provide feedback about products are not verified for the purchase or use of the product. Companies often order anonymous comments to form positive opinions about their products, or negative ones about competitors. Therefore, be guided by the information in the pharmacists' responses in the first place.
