In a three year trial from the Annals of Internal Medicine adults with high blood sugar but not diabetes were assigned to metformin, placebo, or a lifestyle program with a low calorie, low fat diet and 2.5 hours per week of exercise.

Among those with syndrome at baseline, 18 percent placebo, 23 percent metformin, and 38 percent lifestyle no longer had it.
