Receive $15 off your next prescription of Riomet®, the only liquid metformin to treat Type 2 diabetes.

Riomet (metformin hydrochloride oral solution) is the first and only liquid metformin. In adjunct with diet and exercise, Riomet is an effective oral drug that helps in improving blood sugar levels of Type 2 diabetes patients.

Each 5-mL of Riomet is equivalent to the 500 mg tablet form of metformin. The solution contains no alcohol, dyes or sugars. The liquid choice offers accurate dosing and allows for titration of the medication.

How does Riomet work?

This unique liquid formulation of metformin, Riomet, works by the same mechanism as the tablet form to improve glucose tolerance in patients with Type 2 diabetes.

Riomet:

  • decreases liver glucose production
  • decreases absorption of glucose in the intestine
  • improves the body's use of its own insulin more effectively

Unlike sulfonylureas, Riomet and other metformin medications do not produce hypoglycemia* and do not cause hyperinsulinemia** in patients with Type 2 diabetes or normal subjects.

Riomet should be considered for all Type 2 diabetes patients (that are above the age of 10) that are newly diagnosed and that currently struggle with the tablet formulation of metformin.
