Abstract
Preliminary data suggests that metformin may safely and effectively improve the triglyceride profile. However, contrary to study hypotheses, weight, waist, and BMI reduction were not statistically significant. Future double-blind studies with larger sample sizes and of longer duration are warranted to assess more fully the safety and efficacy of this intervention.
