In type 2 diabetes the pancreas does not produce sufficient insulin and the cells of the body are resistant to the low levels of insulin circulating in the blood. Metformin helps to control the amount of glucose in your blood. Glucophage lowers the amount of glucose you absorb from your food and the amount of sugar produced by cells in the liver. Metformin comes as a tablet and an extended-release tablet to take by mouth. Metformin can rarely cause a serious condition called lactic acidosis. Glucophage is used to control blood sugar levels. Glucophage tablets are standard release tablets that are taken two or three times a day either during or just after meals. Glucophage should be taken with meals.
