Pillar 7: Metformin (mostly hepatic) Metformin is often described as a general insulin sensitiser, but mechanistically, its clinically relevant effects are largely hepatic (liver)
They work through several important mechanisms: They increase insulin release from the pancreas when blood glucose is high They reduce excess glucose release from the liver They slow stomach emptying, helping prevent sharp glucose spikes after meals They increase feelings of fullness, often reducing appetite Because these effects depend on blood glucose levels, GLP-1 medications on their own carry a very low risk of causing low blood sugar (hypoglycaemia)
