Thank you.
hello dear. thank you for sharing your concerns. i see that you are worried about non resolving loose motions of tour mother. i would like to tell you that metformin contained in Gelvius Met is very well known to cause diarrhea and bloating. but it usually resolves around 3 months. if her symptoms are persistent and she is too much bothered by them then she needs to visit her sugar doctor so that her antidiabetic medications can be changed. good luck
