That was interesting. I never could get 8 glasses of water a day in myself.

But if you add the decaf tea and coffee in there, I probably do.

My mom told me that there was even more about this on NPR the

other day. The link to NPR is http://www.npr.org. Any way, I

had always thought that 8 8 ounce glasses of water was too much

for me. It's amazing that I'm even able to get in 40 oz a day.

As for the caffeine factor, well, it's hard for me to not once

in a while have a pop.

I wish that vanilla coke was in diet form in case you haven't

tried it yet. I sure like it. They also have cherry coke out

now too.

I did taste the vanilla coke, it wasn't to my liking. But I can't tolerate

the taste of cola anymore. Not sure if that is because of the Glucophage or

not. I cut the caffeine because of my BP along with the salt and the

sweets.

How long have you been on Glucophage for, and what dosage? What

side effects if any did you notice when you first started on it?

Also to everyone, is there anyone here that knows about a

medication Starlix as to what it does?

My mom says if she has to go on meds that she might want to do

this one b/c she's scared of the Glucophage.

Thanks,

According to the ads, the DIET vanilla coke will be on the shelves this

fall :-)

I'm looking forward to trying it too as that was my passion as a kid at

(the old) " soda fountains. "

Diet cherry coke, you mean? I'm on my way to the

market! Although mixing cherry soda with coke also

works pretty well.

I'm waiting for the vanilla coke, too. Although that

reminds me of what happened to me a few weeks ago:

some of you have talked about ordering diet soda in a

restaurant and getting regular? I pushed the button

for diet coke on a vending machine, opened the bottle

and took a gulp. It tasted of vanilla! Fortunately,

because when I looked at the bottle, that's exactly

what it was: vanilla coke. Regular vanilla coke. Had

it been regular coke, I would probably have drunk the

whole bottle without even noticing.

I have been on Glucophage XR for about a year and a half now. I am on 500

mg. The only side effect I have noticed is some foods don't have a taste to

me anymore. The caramel in cola drinks being one of them. I didn't have

the stomach upset that a lot of people including my dad has had.

I was talking about regular cherry coke but I will have to be on

the look out for the Diet one for mom.

Let me know how it is.
