Core Tip |
The use of metformin in mild-to-moderate gestational diabetes mellitus may confer certain advantages. Since metformin reaches almost a similar serum level in the fetus, it is likely to influence the fetal metabolic environment. Limited long-term data suggest that metformin-exposed children have mild adverse anthropometric profiles. However, the clinical significance and effect on cardiometabolic health have yet to be determined. |
