I read that Metformin causes Anaemia, B-12 Deficiency & Vitamin D Deficiency -- which in turn impacts calcium absorption. But considering its benefits, we should take supplements for the iron, B12 and Vit D. I have been on Metformin 2000mg for over 5 years and have evidenced this impact.
My doc had to give me 50000 units of Vit D to boost my #. Its back to normal now. but I have to be on supplements for Vit D & Iron & B12.
Has anyone else experienced this?
