Abstract
In patients with poorly controlled insulin dependent type 2
diabetes, addition of metformin to insulin regimen
significantly lowers hemoglobin A1c levels and results in
lower units of insulin needed per day than in patients
receiving insulin alone. There is also a trend towards
decreased weight gain in those receiving insulin +
metformin, though this was not found to be statistically
significant in this study.
