It slows the rate that food moves from your stomach to your intestines, which keeps your blood sugar from rising too fast. This medicine also lowers the amount of glucose (sugar) your liver produces. Lastly, this medicine triggers the feeling of fullness after meals to help control your appetite and decrease how much food you eat.
