    Background: Although metformin has been used as a first-line pharmacological approach for over 60 years to moderate hyperglycemia and increase insulin sensitivity, its pleiotropic benefits in reducing complications from type 2 diabetes and the general aging process continue to attract Doctors and scientific researchers from a range of disciplines


    Background: Although metformin has been used as a first-line pharmacological approach for over 60 years to moderate hyperglycemia and increase insulin sensitivity, its pleiotropic benefits in reducing complications from type 2 diabetes and the general aging process continue to attract Doctors and scientific researchers from a range of disciplines


    Methods: This study was a post hoc analysis of a randomized controlled trial (HOME trial) that included 390 patients with advanced type 2 diabetes who were randomized to receive 850 mg of metformin or placebo up to a daily dose while continuing insulin therapy three times


    Results: The study enrolled 390 subjects, of whom 196 received metformin and 194 received placebo
