Glucophage instead

Hi. I have diabetes (type 1) and I hate insulin injections. I`ve heard about Glucophage, like diabetics are using it instead of daily insulin injections. Is that really so? Should I give it a try? Are there some mean side effects of the med?

Hi. You can`t take Glucophage man. I`m a diabetic (type 2) and I don`t use daily insulin injections, I take Glucophage. But Glucophage is not for type 1 diabetics. Anyway, I have no side effects, but I know that Glucophage can give you like muscle pain, stomach pain, headache, weakness, nausea, diarrhea, gases, allergic reaction, swelling, weight gain, fever, chills, flu like symptoms,
