Metformin co-administration and additive GI effects posts 31–33

This is a continuation of a long topic, addressed by post number rather than by page. Start at post 1.

This follows post #28 rather than contradicting it.

Anticoagulant questions come up regularly and are the clearest case for professional advice rather than discussion, because the consequence of being wrong is not gradual.

That is where I would start, not where I would stop.

f.haddad, post #13: Building on post #10 rather than restating it. The most defensible general position in this subcategory: identify the plausible mechanism, check whether it has been studied, and where it has not, say that rather than filling the gap. Go to post

Worth separating two things that post #30 runs together.

A request rather than an answer: could whoever has the primary source for metformin co-administration post it? I have seen the claim three times this month and each version had lost a qualifier.

What would change my mind on metformin co-administration is a second dataset collected by someone with no stake in the first. Until then I hold it loosely and I would rather say so than pretend to more.
