Metformin is primarily used to manage type 2 Diabetes and is generally well-tolerated. While it is not commonly associated with causing ulcers, it can lead to gastrointestinal side effects such as nausea, diarrhea, and abdominal discomfort, which might mimic or exacerbate existing gastrointestinal issues. In rare cases, if metformin leads to significant gastrointestinal distress or changes in gut flora, it could potentially contribute to ulcer formation indirectly, but this is not a typical side effect. Always consult a healthcare professional for personalized advice.
