Yes, you can, especially if the medication is used as prescribed by your doctor.
Switching from Avamine (metformin) to Glucophage (also metformin) should be consulted with your doctor. Although both medicines contain the same active ingredient, metformin, there may be differences in formulation (film-coated tablets or extended-release tablets) that are important for the effectiveness of the treatment.
Combining different medications should always be done under medical supervision, especially when the patient has a complicated medical history, such as after surgery for thyroid cancer, insulin resistance, and hypertension.
If you are unable to consult your doctor, you can use the teleconsultation here:
