Metformin ER is a biguanide that works in a few ways to lower your blood sugar.
It lowers the amount of sugar your liver makes.
It also lowers the amount of sugar that's absorbed through your gut from food you eat.
It also helps your body respond better to insulin. This helps your cells take up sugar from the blood and use it as energy better.
