{"product_id":"metformin-usama-ahmad-9781839696053","title":"Metformin: Pharmacology and Drug Interactions","description":"Type 2 diabetes (T2D), also known as non-insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus (NIDDM), is a condition in which cells fail to respond to insulin properly. As the disease progresses, the body does not produce enough insulin. There are several classes of anti-diabetic medications available, including the oral agent metformin. This medication is recommended as first-line treatment for T2D, except for those patients with severe kidney or liver problems. This book discusses the molecular mechanism, pharmacokinetics, and uses of metformin, as well as presents information on adverse drug reactions, drug interactions, and the potential use of metformin in tuberculosis.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Usama Ahmad\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1839696052\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781839696053\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Intechopen\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 12\/15\/2021\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 156\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.00lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.61h x 6.69w x 0.44d","brand":"Usama Ahmad","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":43945985278207,"sku":"9781839696053","price":155.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/products\/img_67f67f7f-dc34-4b95-9cc9-dac8c2a204ed.jpg?v=1681510876","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/metformin-usama-ahmad-9781839696053","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
