While there is no specific pill approved solely for prediabetes, certain medications may be prescribed to help manage blood sugar levels and reduce the risk of developing type 2 diabetes. These include:

  • Metformin: Commonly prescribed for type 2 diabetes, it may also be used for prediabetes in some cases, especially for individuals at high risk.
  • Lifestyle Changes: Medications are often combined with lifestyle modifications, such as diet and exercise, which are the primary treatments for prediabetes.

Always consult with a healthcare provider to determine the best approach for your specific situation.
