Measure
Metformin IR
Subjects received Metformin Immediate Release (IR) tablets, orally once daily (QD) at a dose of 500 milligram (mg) for 1 week, and then the dose was increased with increments of 500 mg every week in the first 2 weeks to 1500 mg. After that, the dose was increased up to a maximum dose of 2000 mg for the next two weeks and maintained at 2000 mg until Week 16.
Metformin XR
Subjects received Metformin Extended Release (XR) tablets, orally QD at a dose of 500 mg for 1 week, and then the dose was increased with increments of 500 mg every week in the first 2 weeks to 1500 mg. After that, the dose was increased up to a maximum dose of 2000 mg for next 2 weeks and maintained at 2000 mg until Week 16.

PRIMARY outcome

Timeframe: Baseline up to Week 16

Population: The safety population included all subjects who received at least 1 dose of trial treatment.

An adverse event (AE) was defined as any untoward medical occurrence in a subject which does not necessarily have a causal relationship with the treatment. An AE was any unfavorable and unintended sign (including an abnormal laboratory finding), symptom, or disease temporally associated with use of a medicinal product, whether or not considered related to the medicinal product.

Population: The safety population included all subjects who received at least 1 dose of trial treatment.

An adverse event (AE) was defined as any untoward medical occurrence in a subject which does not necessarily have a causal relationship with the treatment. An AE was any unfavorable and unintended sign (including an abnormal laboratory finding), symptom, or disease temporally associated with use of a medicinal product, whether or not considered related to the medicinal product. Number of subjects with pre-specified gastrointestinal adverse events (diarrhea, nausea, abdominal pain, bloating, constipation, dyspepsia and flatulence) were reported.
