Hi and welcome to HCM. cetapin xr 500 contains metformin which is a anti diabetic drug. It is very effective in controlling blood sugar and their is no relation between metformin and u getting pregnant. It is not a contraceptive pill or any fertility enhancing pill. If u are already pregnant then its better to consult your gynecologist for diabetes management in pregnancy. Regards.
