Abstract excerpt
AIMS: Metformin pharmacokinetics depends on the presence and activity of membrane-bound drug transporters and may be affected by transport inhibitors. The aim of this study was to investigate the effects of trimethoprim on metformin pharmacokinetics and genetic modulation by organic cation transporter 2 (OCT2) and multidrug and toxin extrusion 1 (MATE1) polymorphisms. METHODS: Twenty-four healthy volunteers...
