Our study included 60  patients treated with metformin  for Twelve-week . The subjects were divided into three groups. Group I as control, group II  patients received Metformin- (1000/2 mg/day) with diet and  group III  patients received the Metformin-(1000/2 mg/day) without diet  all these patient had been selected from those patients visit . The Hb concentration and lipid profile were been examine after 3 months of treatment.In present study we found the hemoglobin concentration reduced in group II with diet patient compare with the group III and control group also reduced in the group III without diet patient compare with control group, as same time This study showed that the treatment with metformine  led to, reductions observed in the cholesterol concentrations of the group II diabetic patients with diet compared with the group III administered MET respective without  diet  diabetic and compared with control, Also we found the triglyceride concentrations of diabetic patients in group administered MET respective with diet were significantly (p<0.05) reduced compared with that of without diet  diabetic and  control therefore it was considered predisposing factor to reduced damage diabetes.
