Mr. lybrate-user, Thanks for the query. I have gone through the details given. Usually Glycomet 500 mg (Metformin 500 mg) does not lead to any hypoglycemic symptoms. 84 mg is not very low. Hypoglycemic symptoms are noticed when blood glucose goes below 70 mg or 60 mg. That happens with drugs like Glimiperide, not with metformin. Please check your HbA1c% and inform. Thanks.
