In case of missed dose, patients will be allowed to take 2 tablets on the next grip. The drug will be presented in its officinale form of Glucophage ® 1000 with specifications indicated in the Vidal dictionary. It will be provided each month, to patient, 3 boxes of 30 tablets of Glucophage ® 1000. The patient will be asked to rate each day, on a calendar, the number of tablets of Glucophage ® 1000 effectively taken.
