Dose-related effects of metformin on acid-base balance and renal function in patients with diabetes who develop acute renal failure: a cross-sectional study.
2016
Aims
The role of metformin in the development of lactic acidosis (LA) in the setting of acute renal failure (ARF) is debated. Moreover, recent experiments suggested that metformin can also be nephrotoxic, but little clinical data exist about this topic. We sought to investigate these possible associations in a large cohort of patients with diabetes who developed ARF.
