The biggest problem with Metformin is that it gives the patient a false sense of security that he/she is doing something. The bottom line is quit eating junk food and drinking sugary drinks.

Metformin primarily works by reducing the liver's production of glucose and increasing muscle cell sensitivity to insulin, which enhances glucose uptake. It may also indirectly impact glucagon signaling, but this is not its main mechanism of action.
