Expired metformin may not necessarily harm you, but its efficacy could be reduced, meaning it might not effectively manage your blood sugar levels. Medications can change chemically over time, and while many remain safe for a short period after expiration, using expired drugs is generally not recommended. It's best to consult a healthcare professional for guidance if you have expired medication.

This allows for once-daily dosing compared to immediate-release metformin, which is typically taken multiple times a day.
