What is Metformin by AUROBINDO PHARMA?
Metformin by Aurobindo Pharma is a pharmaceutical-grade oral anti-diabetic medication formulated to support blood glucose regulation, improve insulin sensitivity, and promote lean body composition. Traditionally used in the treatment of type 2 diabetes, Metformin has become increasingly popular among performance-focused athletes and bodybuilders for its metabolic and fat-loss benefits.
Each tablet delivers 500 mg of pure Metformin HCl and is most often taken alongside meals to help shuttle nutrients into muscle cells while preventing insulin spikes that lead to fat gain.

Common Questions About Metformin
Can Metformin help during bulking?
Yes. Metformin helps improve nutrient partitioning and reduce unwanted fat gain during high-calorie phases. It’s especially helpful when using insulin or growth hormone protocols.
Can it be used for fat loss?
Absolutely. Metformin enhances insulin sensitivity, which reduces fat storage and supports better energy utilization — particularly effective during cutting cycles or recomposition plans.
Are there any side effects?
The most common side effect is mild gastrointestinal discomfort (e.g. bloating or diarrhea), usually during the first 1–2 weeks. Starting at 500 mg and slowly increasing helps reduce these effects.
Do I need PCT after using Metformin?
No. Metformin is a non-hormonal support compound and does not require any post-cycle therapy. It can be continued year-round or cycled strategically.
