This is an antihyperglycemic drug for non-insulin dependent diabetes. It is a blood glucose regulator. It lowers the amount of glucose produced by the liver, reduces the amount of glucose absorbed from food, and helps cells use glucose. Metformin increased 21% in prescriptions for one year. 

In 48 patients with schizophrenia taking clozapine, olanzapine, risperidone, or typical neuroleptic drugs, and 31 untreated healthy control subjects newer neuroleptic drugs, such as clozapine and olanzapine, compared with typical agents, were associated with adverse effects on blood glucose regulation (774).

The infusion of glucose into the bloodstream leads to the inactivation of phosphorylase, followed by the activation of glycogen synthase, in the liver. [After W. Stalmans, H. De Wulf, L. Hue, and H.-G. Hers. Eur. J. Biochem. 41(1974) 127.]...

A process termed oral immune tolerance causes a reduction in the peripheral response to an antigen when that antigen is presented orally. This is the basis of an experimental approach to treat type-I diabetes, in which there may be an autoimmune reaction against the blood glucose regulating hormone, insulin.
