Changing Paradigms: Neonatal Outcomes after Oral Metformin versus Insulin in the Control of Gestational Diabetes Mellitus (Randomized controlled trial).

We may draw the following conclusions from the current study's results that oral metformin was just as effective in managing and controlling gestational diabetes mellitus as insulin injection. Oral metformin was more effective at controlling maternal and fetal hypoglycemia and neonatal birth weight than insulin injection. Complications for mothers and newborns were similar for both treatment modalities. Moreover, treatment with metformin was more complied with by women.
