What is "metformin"?
Metformin is a medication used to treat type 2 diabetes. It works by lowering blood sugar levels and helps the body respond better to insulin, which is a natural substance that controls blood sugar levels. Metformin is often prescribed alongside diet and exercise to manage diabetes effectively. It may also be used to treat polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) in some cases.
