Taking Glycomet (metformin) during your pregnancy will not cause your newborn baby to have a darker skin tone. A baby's skin color is determined entirely by genetics, which are not influenced by this medication. Metformin is safely prescribed to manage blood sugar, helping protect both you and your baby. Please continue to follow your doctor?s guidance for a healthy delivery, and feel free to share any worries with your care team.
