product description
Metformin: A powerful drug for treating diabetes
1.What is metformin?
Biguanides are found in goat grass (Galega Officinalis), a plant that has been used in folk medicine for hundreds of years. The pharmacological action of the plant itself is dependent on goatine (Isoamylene guanidine). Phenformin, Buformin, and metformin are all chemically synthesized and consist of two guanidine molecules. Metformin is an oral drug widely used to treat type 2 diabetes. It belongs to a class of drugs called biguanides and is considered a first-line treatment for diabetes.
2.How does metformin work?
Metformin's main function is to reduce the amount of sugar produced by the liver and make the body's cells more sensitive to insulin. It effectively lowers blood sugar levels and helps regulate the body's response to insulin.
Metformin regulates blood sugar mainly by inhibiting liver sugar output. Metformin mainly relies on organic cationic transporter 1(OCT 1) to enter hepatocytes, and then partially inhibits mitochondrial respiratory chain complex 1, resulting in decreased intracellular ATP and increased AMP levels. We all know that the decrease of ATP and the increase of AMP in the cell will directly inhibit gluconeogenesis and reduce the conversion of glycerol to glucose.
The increased AMP/ATP ratio caused by metformin also activates the AMPK signaling pathway, which inhibits fat synthesis and increases the body's sensitivity to insulin.
3.What are the benefits of metformin?
Metformin provides multiple benefits to people with diabetes:
1) Blood sugar control: By reducing sugar production in the liver and improving insulin sensitivity, metformin helps regulate blood sugar levels and prevent them from going too high or too low.
2) Weight management: Metformin usually results in moderate weight loss in people with diabetes. It does this by reducing appetite, increasing feelings of fullness, and helping to tap into glucose and fat stores for energy.
3) Cardiovascular Protection: Studies show that metformin may reduce the risk of cardiovascular disease, such as heart disease and stroke, in people with diabetes.
4) Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS): In addition to treating diabetes, metformin is used to treat PCOS, a hormone disorder that affects women. It helps regulate the menstrual cycle, reduces insulin resistance, and aids in fertility.
4.Where can metformin be used?
Metformin is mainly used to treat type 2 diabetes. It may be used alone or in combination with other oral antidiabetic medications or in combination with insulin therapy, depending on individual needs. Metformin is indicated for use in newly diagnosed individuals and in individuals who have long-term control of diabetes. In summary, metformin is a powerful drug widely used to treat type 2 diabetes and PCOS. It has benefits such as blood sugar control, weight management, cardiovascular protection, and PCOS symptom relief. Due to its effectiveness and widespread use, metformin has become an important tool in helping individuals live healthier lives while effectively managing their condition.
