The medicine is metformin. Its very safe and is the drug of first choice in patients with diabetes. The only care you should take is with vitamin B12 (this an go down with metformin). You can get your level checked along with other parameters of diabetes control and consult in private. I will be able to clarify further. Its absolutely kidney safe. But if you have kidney problem due to other reasons or diabetes you must take it with caution or stop it. The medicine itself will cause no kidney problem.
