Tablets causing the nausea

I wanted to know if anyone else on metformin 1000mg x 2 and micardis 40mg x 1 a day gets sick in the morning?

The only way I can describe it as is its like food poisoning.

It starts about an hr after I've eaten and an hr after taking meds.

I know it's the meds because I've tried eliminating them one by one!

If you have had this what did you do?

I'm on meteor in 850mg x2 (was x 3 before surgery), lisinopril, lopid x2 and more damn supplements tan I even want to think about. I have had trouble feeling sick after I take everything and honestly take so many morning pills that I can't eat right after because there is no room. Have tried taking with super Protein drink (unjury and skim milk = 30+ grams of protein) and still feel slightly sick but not as bad as food poisoning.

That is the most common side effect of metformin. Ask your doctor about the extended release formula.

i noticed the b100 complex gave me nausea, i stopped taking it and nausea stopped, i have started metformin 850 2x day about 6 mo ago and it was for ovary cysts, i notice if i just take it once a day i feel better, but i have been feeling nausea more in the last 3 months that i did the first year after surgery, i did some reading after i was in hospital for heart attack like symptoms and light headiness nausea, chest feeling like u been running when u jsut sitting, are all heart attack related things that lead up to heart attack. so for me it explains alot, i got nausea with or without metformin

It's sounds like you've had a rough trot. I'm just tinkering around with it a bit to see if it changes anything.
