Abstract Type 2 diabetic patients can regulate their increased blood sugar levels using metformin, an antidiabetic medicine approved by the FDA. It decreases the quantity of glucose produced by the liver, lessens the glucose absorption from the intestines, and raises insulin sensitivity. For best effects, metformin should be used in conjunction with dietary modifications and physical activity. The first-line oral hypoglycemic medication for type 2 DM(Diabetes Mellitus) is thought to be metformin. The recommended medication for obese people is MET. AMPK- Adenosine monophosphate-activated protein kinase, a liver enzyme crucial to insulin signaling, is triggered by metformin. Metformin’s inhibitory effect on hepatic cell glucose synthesis necessitates AMPK activation. This study aims to compare the pharmaceutical quality of three different brands of metformin hydrochloride tablets. All the three brands were evaluated for uniformity of weight, friability, hardness, dissolution, disintegration and assay was performed. All the brands tested were within the specification, thus all the tablets passed the pharmaceutical quality test, however, variations exist between brands, which could be due to differences in excipients, pressure during compression, manufacturing procedure etc.
