Buformin and metformin are renally cleared by glomerular filtration and the various cation transport systems (OCT1–3, MATE1 and MATE2K) affect its pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics thus there are interactions with cimetidine and other basic cations and genetic variability. Phenformin is both metabolised by CYP2D6 and renally cleared. The half-life of all of these drugs is greatly prolonged with renal impairment and the half-life of phenformin is also prolonged in those without CYP2D6 (8 to 9% of Caucasians) and in severe liver disease. | Buformin and metformin are renally cleared by glomerular filtration and the various cation transport systems (OCT1–3, MATE1 and MATE2K) affect its pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics thus there are interactions with cimetidine and other basic cations and genetic variability.
