Medications commonly prescribed for Diabetes include metformin, which helps lower blood sugar levels by improving insulin sensitivity and reducing glucose production in the liver. Other options may include sulfonylureas, which stimulate insulin release from the pancreas, and GLP-1 receptor agonists, which enhance insulin secretion and slow gastric emptying. In more advanced cases, insulin therapy may be necessary to manage blood glucose levels effectively. The choice of medication depends on individual patient needs and the type of diabetes.
