Metformin Hcl 500 Mg is commonly used to treat type 2 diabetes. It helps control blood sugar levels by decreasing glucose production in the liver and improving insulin sensitivity. This medication is often part of a broader treatment plan that includes diet and exercise. It can help reduce the risk of diabetes-related complications such as kidney damage, heart disease, and nerve problems. Common side effects include nausea, diarrhea, and stomach upset, but these often improve over time. Always follow your healthcare provider's instructions when taking metformin.
