Brief Answer:
Metformin is used initially.

Detailed Answer:
Hello and thanks for asking query on this forum,
You have not mentioned your fasting post prandial or random blood sugar neither have you mentioned your HbA1C.
All these tests are required to tell the dose of the medicine.
However as per your query for a otherwise healthy individual normal kidney funtions and liver function metformin 500 mg once or twice a day is drug of choice and is initially started.
Hope I was helpful,
If you have your blood sugar reports post them with follow up.
Thanks.

Hi again,

As you are non-diabetic you need not have any medication.

Your pancreas is there to secrete insulin to take care of your sugar levels and keep kidney safe and healthy. Drink plenty of water throughout the day.

Thanks
