Description
Metformin (brand name: Glucophage) is used to treat a type of
diabetes mellitus (sugar diabetes) called type 2 diabetes. With
this type of diabetes, insulin produced by the pancreas is not
able to get sugar into the cells of the body where it can work
properly. Using metformin alone, with a type of oral antidiabetic
medicine called a sulfonylurea, or with insulin will help to
lower blood sugar when it is too high and help restore the way
you use food to make energy.
Many people can control type 2
diabetes with diet alone or diet and exercise. Following a specially
planned diet and exercising will always be important when you
have diabetes, even when you are taking medicines. To work properly,
the amount of metformin you take must be balanced against the
amount and type of food you eat and the amount of exercise you
do. If you change your diet, your exercise, or both, you will
want to test your blood sugar to find out if it is too low.
Your health care professional will teach you what to do if this
happens.
At some point, this medicine may
stop working as well and your blood glucose will increase. You
will need to know if this happens and what to do. Instead of
taking more of this medicine, your doctor may want you to change
to another antidiabetic medicine. If that does not lower your
blood sugar, your doctor may have you stop taking the medicine
and begin receiving insulin injections instead.
Metformin does not help patients
who have insulin-dependent or type 1 diabetes because they cannot
produce insulin from their pancreas gland. Their blood glucose
is best controlled by insulin injections.
