Metformin is an anti-hyperglycemic. It is known as an insulin sensitizer in that it allows for glucose to be more sensitive to the insulin that a Type 2 diabetic makes allowing for more glucose to be taken in and used by the cell.
Meformin also decreases the amount of glucose made by the liver as well as decreases the absorption of glucose in the small intestine.

Is metformin er the same as metformin hcl?
Metformin ER (extended-release) and metformin HCl (hydrochloride) are not exactly the same. Metformin HCl is the active ingredient in both formulations, but Metformin ER is designed to release the medication slowly over time to help maintain consistent blood levels. This allows for once-daily dosing compared to immediate-release metformin, which is typically taken multiple times a day.
