Application
Buformin Hydrochloride: A Biganide Antidiabetic
Buformin hydrochloride is a biganide antidiabetic such as metformin [M2009] and phenformin. They delay absorption of glucose from the gastrointestinal tract, increase insulin sensitivity and glucose uptake into cells, and inhibits synthesis of glucose by the liver.1) Although, buformin and phenformin were withdrawn from the clinical market in many countries due to an elevated risk of causing lactic acidosis which is a condition characterized by overproduction of lactic acid.2,3) Meanwhile, it has been reported that biganide antidiabetics inhibit the growth and development of cancer.4,5) (The product is for research purpose only.)
