Efficacity and Safety of Metformin XR in CKD Stage 1 to 3
Abstract
There is limited data availability on effect of Metformin XR on 24-h plasma glucose, and there is no available data in chronic kidney disease (CKD). The planned study aims to provide data on glucose plasma level in relation to metformin plasma level in Diabetes Type II patients.
Conditions: Renal Insufficiency, Chronic.
Primary outcome: Efficacy of once daily Metformin XR on 24-h blood glucose control.
Enrollment: 12 participants.
How strong is the evidence?
Evidence Hub reads this as a clinical trial, done in people. Its evidence level is 3 of 5 (Moderate · trial / cohort / secondary analysis). Trials without a large randomized design, cohorts and secondary analyses give moderate evidence. Reported size: 12 participants or records.
