Yes, metformin hcl is a drug to help lower blood sugar and also help the body's insulin receptors to be more sensitive to the insulin that the person's body makes.

 Metformin is not only used for diabetics those who are at high risk for developing diabetes (Prediabetics) are also prescribed Metformin. High risk factors: being overweight (having a lot of fat on waist), high blood pressure, high cholesterol, lack of exercise, high blood glucose levels not high enough to be considered diabetes.

 Unfortunately many doctors do not treat prediabetes, they wait for patients to develop full blown diabetes.
