19, diabetes prevention and treatment of errors

Patients with weight loss should not take metformin.
Metformin can improve insulin resistance, as well as lipid and reducing the role of body weight, which will now be classified as obese metformin type Ⅱ diabetes mellitus patients with drug of first choice. However, patients with diabetes weight loss should not take metformin because metformin suppresses appetite, reducing weight, will越吃越thin. Let us be clear, not all patients with diabetes need to control diet, lean diabetic patients even increase the amount of diet, slim lead to malnutrition, low immunity, and sometimes also frightening than fat. We have often seen in clinical practice such patients, turned out to be a obese diabetic patients, metformin reduced weight make it very clear that they have become thinner, and is still taking. This requires adjustment of the drug.
