सिटाग्लिप्टिन और मेटफॉर्मिन और विटामिन B12 का इंटरैक्शन

Vitamin B 12 Deficiency In controlled clinical trials of metformin of 29 weeks duration, a decrease to subnormal levels of previously normal serum vitamin B 12 levels was observed in approximately 7% of patients.

Such decrease, possibly due to interference with B 12 absorption from the B 12 -intrinsic factor complex, may be associated with anemia but appears to be rapidly reversible with discontinuation of metformin or vitamin B 12 supplementation.

Vitamin B 12 Deficiency: Metformin may lower vitamin B 12 levels.

Measure hematologic parameters annually and vitamin B 12 at 2 to 3 year intervals and manage any abnormalities.

Certain individuals (those with inadequate vitamin B 12 or calcium intake or absorption) appear to be predisposed to developing subnormal vitamin B 12 levels.

मेटफॉर्मिन B12 का अवशोषण कम करता है; लंबे समय से मेटफॉर्मिन ले रहे लोगों को समय-समय पर B12 का स्तर जांच करवाना चाहिए।

लेबल का मूल पाठ (अंग्रेज़ी) Metformin reduces B12 absorption; people on long-term metformin should have B12 levels checked periodically.
