I don't have any experience with this, so I wouldn't have any knowledge on whether it's helpful or not.

Maybe I would have to research more on it to know if it's good to be used or not.

I will get back to you sooner or later.

If I am not mistaken metformin is the maintenance medication for diabetes and my sister-in-law who is a nurse said that the specialist doctor in their hospital recommends using insulin instead of taking metformin which has a side effect in the long run. I guess you should not be using any drug without the supervision of a doctor.

Exactly! I completely agree with you on this about making sure not to self medicate and get the assistance of a professional doctor.

Some drugs have serious side effects.
