what is the difference between metformin and metformin HCL
Different types of oral diabetes medication treat diabetes in different ways. Metformin controls the amount of sugar in the the blood. Glyburide stimulates the pancreas to release insulin.
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.
