No: Midodrine is used to treat orthostatic hypotension (a low blood pressure that occurs when you stand abruptly from sitting or lying down, can lead to lightheadedness). This medication does not have an effect on blood sugar levels

Not usually: Except for an interaction with metformin, there should be no special effect for people who have diabetes.
