The usual dose of metformin is 500mg to 1000mg twice a day. Either formulation is fine.

As regards a clinician to help you directly my advice is to go to Google and query integrative physicians in your area. Then call each practice and ask them if they see cancer patients. While they may not be experts they can do the blood tests and other tests required and order the prescription meds. .. we have done this multiple times. You can tell them about my substack and that I would be happy to answer any questions they have. It is always best to have a clinician you can see face to face. Almost all integrative clinicians will spend time with their patients.

Wegovey and metformin can be taken together. Wegovy does NOT have the same anti-cancer effects of metformin.

4 mmol/ l is low. I would first reduce the dose of berberine and see what happens.

I thought you were referring to the metformin post... whcih you used to send the comment. The post you are referring to is the "approach to repurposed......" the section on Glioblastoma. If you notice their is an asterisk next to invermectin and below the list there is another asterisk.. which expands on the role of ivermetin.. it should be a clear as mud.

Yes, if the lung nodules are malignant

Any information for lung nodules using ivermectin to possible get rid of?

Cancer & Metabolic Healing's avatar

Not sure what the options are.

Fred Wagshul is a good choice. I have two recent posts on the treatment of prostate cancer. Need to follow the 5-axis approach.

Cancer & Metabolic Healing's avatar

I would take the entire 5 axis protocol.. plus all the extras. i would also consider metronomic chemotherapy.. low dose cyclophosphamide or cepecitbabine

As far as I know Glipizide has no anti-cancer activity.

Cancer & Metabolic Healing's avatar

Yes. If they are malignant nodules

Cancer & Metabolic Healing's avatar

I think regular metformin is fine.

Thank you for taking the time to reply. My husband is on most of this and I am attempting to get the timing of everything down now.

We do not have any MD willing to assist with this so we are on our own, but he at least gets regular blood work so that is helpful. I believe we can get Metformin from All Family Pharmacy but I don’t know about propranolol and atorvastatin.

Just received doxycycline but I am unsure where to add that in relation to everything else.

Ivermectin*

What is the asterisk referring to, please?

Cancer & Metabolic Healing's avatar

I dont know what you are referring to . I dont to ivermectin* in this post. https://paulmarik.substack.com/p/metformin-the-most-important-repurposed

Don's avatar

You don't? Right above this post is your list of 13 items, including Ivermectin, for glioblastoma.

There is an asterisk after Ivermectin. You don't see it?

I am unable to get a prescription for metformin as a repurposed drug. Is berberine an effective substitute?

Cancer & Metabolic Healing's avatar

Yes.. Ideally they should be taken together.
