Metformin/glucophage max dose--carb load days

[cecray3]

I have read several threads on metformin and I have a pretty decent understanding of when the best time to take it is. My question is if I were to take it only on my carb-load days (1day/wk) is there a max dosage per day? In other words, if I eat 7 meals throughout the day each consiting of 100g carbs, would it be foolish to take 1g of metformin with each meal? Should I not take it with EVERY carb meal? Any protocol recommendations would be appreciated.

if its a big carb meal then ya take 1000mg and see how you react. you wont go hypo so the worst that will happen is stomach upset and gas. i would do 500mg/a meal
