Does anyone know how long it takes for metformin to get out of your system?

Your glucose will continue to go up for 2 hours after you eat.

That's a really nice blood sugar reading. Yes, you test two hours after finishing eating. In non-diabetics the blood sugar raises immediately after eating and hits its high one hour after eating and starts back down to pre-eating levels after two hours. In diabetics its doesn't start to come down to pre eating levels until three hours.


From what you stated as your breakfast you only had 15-18 grams of carbs. If this is the way that you normally eat it is no wonder that you have done so well losing weight.
