Prior to prescribing metformin, the provider should:
 
  1. Draw a serum creatinine to assess renal function
  2. Try the patient on insulin
  3. Tell the patient to increase iodine intake
  4. Have the patient stop taking any sulfonylurea to avoid dangerous drug interactions

  2. Are not associated with weight gain
  3. Close ATP-dependent potassium channels in the beta cell
  4. Act on the incretin system to indirectly increase insulin production
