        test
      • Interaction with Alcohol

        • Decreased effect: Drugs which tend to produce hyperglycemia (eg, diuretics, corticosteroids, phenothiazines, thyroid products, estrogens, oral contraceptives, phenytoin, nicotinic acid, sympathomimetics, calcium channel blocking drugs, isoniazid) may lead to a loss of glycemic control.
        • Increased effect: Furosemide increased the metformin plasma and blood Cmax without altering metformin renal clearance in a single dose study.
        • Increased toxicity:
          • Cationic drugs (eg, amiloride, digoxin, morphine, procainamide, quinidine, quinine, ranitidine, triamterene, trimethoprim, and vancomycin) which are eliminated by renal tubular secretion could have the potential for interaction with metformin by competing for common renal tubular transport systems.

      • Interaction with Disease

        Patients suffering from pancreatitis, cardiac failure and vitamin B12 deficiency should exercise caution.
