<p><b>New page</b></p><div>Interest in metformin resumed at the end of the 1940s. In 1950, metformin, unlike some other similar compounds, was found not to decrease [[blood pressure]] and [[heart rate]] in animals. That year, Filipino physician Eusebio Y. Garcia used metformin (he named it Fluamine) to treat influenza; he noted the medication "lowered the blood sugar to minimum physiological limit" and was not toxic. Garcia believed metformin to have [[bacteriostatic]], [[Antiviral drug|antiviral]], [[antimalarial]], [[antipyretic]], and [[analgesic]] actions. In a series of articles in 1954, Polish pharmacologist Janusz Supniewski was unable to confirm most of these effects, including lowered blood sugar. Instead he observed antiviral effects in humans.</div>FuzzyBot
