Hi adrianna,

From what I've read, the pill you have may be Metformin (500 mg). However I am having a hard time finding pertinent information to back up the claims. Based on the logo, this pill is very likely manufactured by Cobalt pharmaceuticals in Canada. If you google "Cobalt pharmaceuticals logo" you should be able to confirm that.

Just in case the pill you have is Metformin, I'll provide some information about the medication below:

Metformin is an oral antidiabetic drug in the biguanide class. It is the first-line drug of choice for the treatment of type 2 diabetes, in particular, in overweight and obese people and those with normal kidney function. Its use in gestational diabetes has been limited by safety concerns. It is also used in the treatment of polycystic ovary syndrome, and has been investigated for other diseases where insulin resistance may be an important factor. Metformin works by suppressing glucose production by the liver.

Metformin is the only antidiabetic drug that has been conclusively shown to prevent the cardiovascular complications of diabetes. It helps reduce LDL cholesterol and triglyceride levels, and is not associated with weight gain. As of 2010, Metformin is one of only two oral antidiabetics in the World Health Organization Model List of Essential Medicines (the other being glibenclamide).

Side effects:

The most common adverse effect of Metformin is gastrointestinal upset, including diarrhea, cramps, nausea, vomiting and increased flatulence; Metformin is more commonly associated with gastrointestinal side effects than most other antidiabetic drugs. The most serious potential side effect of Metformin use is lactic acidosis; this complication is very rare, and the vast majority of these cases seem to be related to comorbid conditions, such as impaired liver or kidney function, rather than to the Metformin itself.

You can learn more about this drug on the page for Metformin Details

I hope this helps!
