several different consensus documents<span class="elsevierStyleSup">1-3</span> and guidelines<span class="elsevierStyleSup">4&#44;5</span> have been published that coincide on the recommendation to use metformin as the glucose-lowering drug of choice for patients with type 2 DM&#46; However&#44; no such agreement exists as regards the level of renal damage from which the use of this drug is contraindicated due to the potential risk of lactic acidosis &#40;LA&#41;&#44; a rare but severe complication that can arise&#46;<span class="elsevierStyleSup">1-5</span></p><p class="elsevierStylePara">With the objective of evaluating and comparing medical practice among different groups of health care professionals &#40;primary care&#44; endocrinology&#44; and nephrology departments&#41; in our health area&#44; and in light of the information provided in the available consensus documents and guidelines&#44; we have reviewed the characteristics of treatment with ADO in a group of 304 patients diagnosed with type 2 DM and a GFR &#40;MDRD-4&#41; &#60;60ml&#47;min&#47;1&#46;73m<span class="elsevierStyleSup">2</span>&#44; focusing primarily on the use of metformin&#46; Overall&#44; metformin was the most commonly used ADO&#44; followed by repaglinide&#44; DPP-4 inhibitors&#44; and sulfonylureas &#40;mainly glimepiride&#41;&#46;</p><p class="elsevierStylePara">Upon analysis of the data by department&#44; we observed that the most commonly used drug was metformin both in primary care and endocrinology units&#44; with a significantly lower rate of use by nephrologists&#44; which also occurred with sulfonylureas&#46; We also observed that sulfonylureas and DPP-4 inhibitors were more commonly used in primary care&#44; repaglinide was more commonly used in nephrology units&#44; and repaglinide in combination with insulin in endocrinology departments&#46; The more intensive use of DPP-4 inhibitors in primary care was associated with the simultaneous use of metformin &#40;70&#37;&#41;&#44; with appearance of these associations &#40;vildagliptin&#47;sitagliptin with metformin&#41; occurring in recent years&#46; The lower rate of use of metformin in nephrology units can be explained by the higher mean plasma creatinine level &#40;1&#46;79&#177;0&#46;59mg&#47;dl&#41; and significantly lower GFR &#40;10&#46;2&#177;35&#46;8ml&#47;min&#47;1&#46;73m&#173;<span class="elsevierStyleSup">2</span>&#41; as measured by MDRD-4 than in the other groups&#46; Furthermore&#44; sulfonylureas were used at a lower rate and repaglinide was used more frequently by nephrologist&#44; as repaglinide has a short half-life and can be used in patients in advanced stages of renal failure&#46;<span class="elsevierStyleSup">1</span></p><p class="elsevierStylePara">Upon analysis of the use of metformin and its correlation with GFR &#40;MDRD-4&#41;&#44; we found that the majority of patients &#40;70&#37;&#41; had a GFR of 45-60ml&#47;min&#47;1&#46;73m<span class="elsevierStyleSup">2</span>&#44; 39&#46;4&#37; had a GFR of 30-44ml&#47;min&#47;1&#46;73m<span class="elsevierStyleSup">2</span>&#44; and only 13&#46;3&#37; had a GFR of 15-29ml&#47;min&#47;1&#46;73m<span class="elsevierStyleSup">2</span>&#46; As such&#44; no patient fell within the recommendations made by the SED and AACE&#47;ACE&#44; which contraindicate the use of metformin at GFR&#60;60ml&#47;min&#44;<span class="elsevierStyleSup">1&#44;2</span> although it is in line with the recommendations from Canadian and Australian clinical guidelines<span class="elsevierStyleSup">4&#44;5</span> and with the non-explicit recommendations from other consensus documents&#46;<span class="elsevierStyleSup">3</span> In any case&#44; most doctors consider a cut-off point of 30ml&#47;min to be an absolute contraindication for the use of metformin&#46;</p><p class="elsevierStylePara">Metformin and sulfonylureas were prescribed in 13&#46;3&#37; of patients with a GFR&#60;30ml&#47;min&#47;1&#46;73m<span class="elsevierStyleSup">2</span>&#44; even though the use of these drugs in patients with such a low GFR is contraindicated and does not fall within the ranges observed in clinical recommendations&#46; This trend is reported in other studies as well&#44; in which as many as 27&#37; of patients that received metformin had some contraindication for its use&#46;<span class="elsevierStyleSup">12-14 </span>In these studies&#44; no mention is made to the reasons justifying the use of metformin in patients with contraindications for the drug&#44; although doubts are raised as to the maintenance of this therapy in many patients &#40;41&#37;-75&#37;&#41;&#44; despite these contraindications&#46;<span class="elsevierStyleSup">12-14</span> The four patients that received metformin with a GFR&#60;30ml&#47;min&#47;1&#46;73m<span class="elsevierStyleSup">2</span> were 69-95 years old and had a plasma creatinine level of 1&#46;9-2&#46;2mg&#47;dl &#40;GFR&#58; 23-28ml&#47;min&#47;1&#46;73m<span class="elsevierStyleSup">2</span>&#41;&#46;</p><p class="elsevierStylePara">The basis for different levels of metformin prescribed according to GFR lies in the possible increase of risk for LA in patients with renal failure&#44; since lactic acid is eliminated through filtration and active tubular secretion&#46; The association between LA and renal failure in patients with type 2 DM is currently under debate&#44; to say the least&#46; In a review of the Cochrane database&#44;<span class="elsevierStyleSup">15</span> no cases of fatal or non-fatal LA were observed when combining the information for 206 comparative trials performed with a total of 47&#160;846 patients&#47;year treated with metformin and 38&#160;221 patients&#47;year treated without metformin&#46; In a systematic literature review&#44; again no differences were observed when analysing the incidence of LA between patients treated with and without metformin&#44; although in this study&#44; the mean incidence of LA was 8&#46;4 cases&#47;patient&#47;year in the group with metformin&#44; and 9 cases&#47;patient&#47;year in the other&#44;<span class="elsevierStyleSup">16</span> which is higher than the rates reported elsewhere &#40;3&#46;3 cases&#47;patient&#47;year in groups treated with metformin vs 4&#46;8 cases&#47;patient&#47;year in groups treated with other sulfonylureas&#41;&#46;<span class="elsevierStyleSup">17</span> These studies concluded that there is no increased risk of LA&#44; and that the primary cause for this condition is systemic dysfunction&#46;</p><p class="elsevierStylePara">Although no randomised studies have been carried out regarding the use of metformin in renal failure&#44; some have reviewed the data from its use in patients with varying stages of renal damage&#44; and it has been generally established that&#44; based on the minimal existence of complications and the potential benefits of the drug&#44; it can generally be used with caution in patients with a GFR of 30-60ml&#47;min&#46;<span class="elsevierStyleSup">13-19</span> Recently&#44; recommendations have been published that support the use of metformin in patients with a GFR of 45-60ml&#47;min&#44; with control tests for renal function every 6 months &#59; and in patients with a GFR of 30-45ml&#47;min&#44; a reduction of the dose by half and renal function tests every 3 months would be necessary&#46; However&#44; they maintained the absolute contraindication for prescribing metformin when GFR&#60;30ml&#47;min&#46;<span class="elsevierStyleSup">20</span></p><p class="elsevierStylePara">In the last 15 years&#44; we have diagnosed only 2 patients with LA&#44; and in neither case had metformin been prescribed when GFR&#60;60ml&#47;min&#47;1&#46;73m<span class="elsevierStyleSup">2</span>&#46; Both cases were triggered by dehydration from severe gastroenteritis and prerenal acute renal failure&#46;</p><p class="elsevierStylePara">Upon reviewing the technical data sheet for metformin&#44; which is the legal document regulating its use&#44; we found that explicit contraindications are stated for its use in patients with renal failure or renal dysfunction &#40;creatinine clearance &#60;60ml&#47;min&#41;&#44; although no reference is made to adjusting the measure to body surface area&#46;<span class="elsevierStyleSup">9</span> In light of the technical data sheet and guideline recommendations and the analysis of our results&#44; we should consider whether our medical conduct is correct and within the legal framework&#46; We would like to reflect on the information provided in the metformin technical data sheet&#46; Is creatinine clearance&#44; as described in the drug&#8217;s data sheet&#44; the currently used standard method for measuring renal function&#63;</p><p class="elsevierStylePara">Currently&#44; the nephrological scientific community does not consider creatinine clearance to be the most adequate parameter for measuring GFR&#46; In 2002&#44; the National Kidney Foundation &#40;NFK&#41; &#8211; Kidney Disease Outcomes Quality Initiative &#40;KDOQI&#41; published a guideline for the evaluation&#44; classification&#44; and stratification of chronic kidney disease&#44; and recommended estimating GFR&#44; the currently used method in clinical practice&#44; to evaluate the level of renal dysfunction and its progression through time&#44; using formulas that take into account serum creatinine&#44; such as Cockcroft-Gault &#40;CG&#41; and MDRD&#46;<span class="elsevierStyleSup">21</span> Spanish Society of Nephrology guidelines also recommend the use of CG and MDRD for calculating GFR &#40;level B evidence&#41;&#46;<span class="elsevierStyleSup">22</span></p><p class="elsevierStylePara">Although the comparison between CG and MDRD is under debate&#44; primarily based on the characteristics of the population studied and the method used for calculating serum creatinine&#44;<span class="elsevierStyleSup">23</span> which results in underestimation of GFR&#62;60ml&#47;min&#47;1&#46;73m<span class="elsevierStyleSup">2</span>&#44;<span class="elsevierStyleSup">24</span> the majority of authors and scientific associations have used the MDRD-4<span class="elsevierStyleSup">10</span> formula as the reference method due to its ease of application in clinical laboratories and the fact that patient weight is not needed&#46;<span class="elsevierStyleSup">25</span> The laboratory at our hospital uses the MDRD-4 formula for calculating GFR&#46; Upon analysis of the population characteristics from our study&#44; we observed that all of our patients were diabetics&#44; with a mean age of 74&#46;2 years&#44; and 59&#46;2&#37; had a GFR of 45-59ml&#47;min&#47;1&#46;73m<span class="elsevierStyleSup">2</span>&#44; meaning that they were far from the characteristics of the population of the MDRD study&#44; in which only 6&#37; of patients were diabetics&#44; with a mean age of 51 years&#44; and chronic renal failure at a mean GFR of 40ml&#47;min&#47;1&#46;73m<span class="elsevierStyleSup">2</span>&#46;<span class="elsevierStyleSup">26</span></p><p class="elsevierStylePara">Some guidelines also establish the possibility of using serum creatinine as the reference method for prescribing ADO &#40;1&#46;5mg&#47;dl for men and 1&#46;4mg&#47;dl for women&#41;&#46;<span class="elsevierStyleSup">2</span> Creatinine is not currently considered a good parameter for measuring renal function &#40;KDOQI&#41;&#59; in addition&#44; the percentages of patients included in each stage of renal failure would vary considerably when compared to using MDRD as the reference method&#44; decreasing the potential number of patients that could use metformin&#46;<span class="elsevierStyleSup">27</span></p><p class="elsevierStylePara">The search for a new equation that would facilitate a better and more accurate GFR in different populations and patients with a GFR&#62;60ml&#47;min&#47;1&#46;73m<span class="elsevierStyleSup">2</span> led the U&#46;S&#46; National Institute of Diabetes and Digestive and Kidney Diseases to develop a new equation in 2009 &#40;<span class="elsevierStyleItalic">Chronic Kidney Disease Epidemiology Collaboration</span> &#91;CKD-EPI&#93;&#41;&#46; This formula uses the same variables as the MDRD-4 and allows for a better estimate of GFR in patients with a GFR&#62;60ml&#47;min&#47;1&#46;73m<span class="elsevierStyleSup">2</span>&#44; which decreases the rate of false positives and improves drug prescription and the use of contrast dyes&#46;<span class="elsevierStyleSup">28</span></p><p class="elsevierStylePara">Later studies in different study populations appear to confirm these data&#46;<span class="elsevierStyleSup">29&#44;30</span> The recommendations for using metformin in patients with a GFR of 30-60ml&#47;min&#47;1&#46;73m<span class="elsevierStyleSup">2</span>&#44; as expressed in consensus documents&#44; guidelines&#44; studies&#44; and medical practice&#44; suggest the possibility of modifying the technical data sheet for metformin&#44; not only in terms of contraindications for its use in patients with renal failure&#44; but also regarding the use of creatinine clearance as a parameter for measuring renal function&#46; We understand that this is a complex and costly process in which scientific associations should play a greater role&#46; New evidence&#44; studies&#44; experience&#44; and better understanding are necessary to change the recommendations and contraindications established for a drug&#46; We should also conduct studies in patients with renal failure&#44; who are normally excluded from clinical trials&#44; in order to fully understand this issue&#46;</p><p class="elsevierStylePara">We conclude that metformin&#44; a drug recommended by various consensus documents and guidelines for the treatment of patients with DM&#44; is a safe&#44; useful&#44; and cheap ADO&#46; However&#44; its current technical data sheet&#44; a document establishing legal constraints&#44; contraindicates its use in patients with creatinine clearance &#60;60ml&#47;min&#46; Although no randomised studies have been performed in populations with renal failure&#44; meta-analyses and retrospective and observational studies suggest that metformin can be used with caution&#44; instructing the patient&#44; and reducing the dosage in patients with a GFR of 30-60ml&#47;min&#47;1&#46;73m<span class="elsevierStyleSup">2</span>&#46;</p><p class="elsevierStylePara">Currently&#44; creatinine clearance has been replaced by MDRD as the method of choice for estimating GFR&#44; although it underestimates GFR in patients with GFR&#62;60ml&#47;min&#47;1&#46;73m<span class="elsevierStyleSup">2</span> and is not validated for all populations&#44;

DPP-4 inhibitors&#44; and sulfonylureas &#40;mainly glimepiride&#41;&#46;</p><p class="elsevierStylePara">Upon analysis of the data by department&#44; we observed that the most commonly used drug was metformin both in primary care and endocrinology units&#44; with a significantly lower rate of use by nephrologists&#44; which also occurred with sulfonylureas&#46; We also observed that sulfonylureas and DPP-4 inhibitors were more commonly used in primary care&#44; repaglinide was more commonly used in nephrology units&#44; and repaglinide in combination with insulin in endocrinology departments&#46; The more intensive use of DPP-4 inhibitors in primary care was associated with the simultaneous use of metformin &#40;70&#37;&#41;&#44; with appearance of these associations &#40;vildagliptin&#47;sitagliptin with metformin&#41; occurring in recent years&#46; The lower rate of use of metformin in nephrology units can be explained by the higher mean plasma creatinine level &#40;1&#46;79&#177;0&#46;59mg&#47;dl&#41; and significantly lower GFR &#40;10&#46;2&#177;35&#46;8ml&#47;min&#47;1&#46;73m&#173;<span class="elsevierStyleSup">2</span>&#41; as measured by MDRD-4 than in the other groups&#46; Furthermore&#44; sulfonylureas were used at a lower rate and repaglinide was used more frequently by nephrologist&#44; as repaglinide has a short half-life and can be used in patients in advanced stages of renal failure&#46;<span class="elsevierStyleSup">1</span></p><p class="elsevierStylePara">Upon analysis of the use of metformin and its correlation with GFR &#40;MDRD-4&#41;&#44; we found that the majority of patients &#40;70&#37;&#41; had a GFR of 45-60ml&#47;min&#47;1&#46;73m<span class="elsevierStyleSup">2</span>&#44; 39&#46;4&#37; had a GFR of 30-44ml&#47;min&#47;1&#46;73m<span class="elsevierStyleSup">2</span>&#44; and only 13&#46;3&#37; had a GFR of 15-29ml&#47;min&#47;1&#46;73m<span class="elsevierStyleSup">2</span>&#46; As such&#44; no patient fell within the recommendations made by the SED and AACE&#47;ACE&#44; which contraindicate the use of metformin at GFR&#60;60ml&#47;min&#44;<span class="elsevierStyleSup">1&#44;2</span> although it is in line with the recommendations from Canadian and Australian clinical guidelines<span class="elsevierStyleSup">4&#44;5</span> and with the non-explicit recommendations from other consensus documents&#46;<span class="elsevierStyleSup">3</span> In any case&#44; most doctors consider a cut-off point of 30ml&#47;min to be an absolute contraindication for the use of metformin&#46;</p><p class="elsevierStylePara">Metformin and sulfonylureas were prescribed in 13&#46;3&#37; of patients with a GFR&#60;30ml&#47;min&#47;1&#46;73m<span class="elsevierStyleSup">2</span>&#44; even though the use of these drugs in patients with such a low GFR is contraindicated and does not fall within the ranges observed in clinical recommendations&#46; This trend is reported in other studies as well&#44; in which as many as 27&#37; of patients that received metformin had some contraindication for its use&#46;<span class="elsevierStyleSup">12-14 </span>In these studies&#44; no mention is made to the reasons justifying the use of metformin in patients with contraindications for the drug&#44; although doubts are raised as to the maintenance of this therapy in many patients &#40;41&#37;-75&#37;&#41;&#44; despite these contraindications&#46;<span class="elsevierStyleSup">12-14</span> The four patients that received metformin with a GFR&#60;30ml&#47;min&#47;1&#46;73m<span class="elsevierStyleSup">2</span> were 69-95 years old and had a plasma creatinine level of 1&#46;9-2&#46;2mg&#47;dl &#40;GFR&#58; 23-28ml&#47;min&#47;1&#46;73m<span class="elsevierStyleSup">2</span>&#41;&#46;</p><p class="elsevierStylePara">The basis for different levels of metformin prescribed according to GFR lies in the possible increase of risk for LA in patients with renal failure&#44; since lactic acid is eliminated through filtration and active tubular secretion&#46; The association between LA and renal failure in patients with type 2 DM is currently under debate&#44; to say the least&#46; In a review of the Cochrane database&#44;<span class="elsevierStyleSup">15</span> no cases of fatal or non-fatal LA were observed when combining the information for 206 comparative trials performed with a total of 47&#160;846 patients&#47;year treated with metformin and 38&#160;221 patients&#47;year treated without metformin&#46; In a systematic literature review&#44; again no differences were observed when analysing the incidence of LA between patients treated with and without metformin&#44; although in this study&#44; the mean incidence of LA was 8&#46;4 cases&#47;patient&#47;year in the group with metformin&#44; and 9 cases&#47;patient&#47;year in the other&#44;<span class="elsevierStyleSup">16</span> which is higher than the rates reported elsewhere &#40;3&#46;3 cases&#47;patient&#47;year in groups treated with metformin vs 4&#46;8 cases&#47;patient&#47;year in groups treated with other sulfonylureas&#41;&#46;<span class="elsevierStyleSup">17</span> These studies concluded that there is no increased risk of LA&#44; and that the primary cause for this condition is systemic dysfunction&#46;</p><p class="elsevierStylePara">Although no randomised studies have been carried out regarding the use of metformin in renal failure&#44; some have reviewed the data from its use in patients with varying stages of renal damage&#44; and it has been generally established that&#44; based on the minimal existence of complications and the potential benefits of the drug&#44; it can generally be used with caution in patients with a GFR of 30-60ml&#47;min&#46;<span class="elsevierStyleSup">13-19</span> Recently&#44; recommendations have been published that support the use of metformin in patients with a GFR of 45-60ml&#47;min&#44; with control tests for renal function every 6 months &#59; and in patients with a GFR of 30-45ml&#47;min&#44; a reduction of the dose by half and renal function tests every 3 months would be necessary&#46; However&#44; they maintained the absolute contraindication for prescribing metformin when GFR&#60;30ml&#47;min&#46;<span class="elsevierStyleSup">20</span></p><p class="elsevierStylePara">In the last 15 years&#44; we have diagnosed only 2 patients with LA&#44; and in neither case had metformin been prescribed when GFR&#60;60ml&#47;min&#47;1&#46;73m<span class="elsevierStyleSup">2</span>&#46; Both cases were triggered by dehydration from severe gastroenteritis and prerenal acute renal failure&#46;</p><p class="elsevierStylePara">Upon reviewing the technical data sheet for metformin&#44; which is the legal document regulating its use&#44; we found that explicit contraindications are stated for its use in patients with renal failure or renal dysfunction &#40;creatinine clearance &#60;60ml&#47;min&#41;&#44; although no reference is made to adjusting the measure to body surface area&#46;<span class="elsevierStyleSup">9</span> In light of the technical data sheet and guideline recommendations and the analysis of our results&#44; we should consider whether our medical conduct is correct and within the legal framework&#46; We would like to reflect on the information provided in the metformin technical data sheet&#46; Is creatinine clearance&#44; as described in the drug&#8217;s data sheet&#44; the currently used standard method for measuring renal function&#63;</p><p class="elsevierStylePara">Currently&#44; the nephrological scientific community does not consider creatinine clearance to be the most adequate parameter for measuring GFR&#46; In 2002&#44; the National Kidney Foundation &#40;NFK&#41; &#8211; Kidney Disease Outcomes Quality Initiative &#40;KDOQI&#41; published a guideline for the evaluation&#44; classification&#44; and stratification of chronic kidney disease&#44; and recommended estimating GFR&#44; the currently used method in clinical practice&#44; to evaluate the level of renal dysfunction and its progression through time&#44; using formulas that take into account serum creatinine&#44; such as Cockcroft-Gault &#40;CG&#41; and MDRD&#46;<span class="elsevierStyleSup">21</span> Spanish Society of Nephrology guidelines also recommend the use of CG and MDRD for calculating GFR &#40;level B evidence&#41;&#46;<span class="elsevierStyleSup">22</span></p><p class="elsevierStylePara">Although the comparison between CG and MDRD is under debate&#44; primarily based on the characteristics of the population studied and the method used for calculating serum creatinine&#44;<span class="elsevierStyleSup">23</span> which results in underestimation of GFR&#62;60ml&#47;min&#47;1&#46;73m<span class="elsevierStyleSup">2</span>&#44;<span class="elsevierStyleSup">24</span> the majority of authors and scientific associations have used the MDRD-4<span class="elsevierStyleSup">10</span> formula as the reference method due to its ease of application in clinical laboratories and the fact that patient weight is not needed&#46;<span class="elsevierStyleSup">25</span> The laboratory at our hospital uses the MDRD-4 formula for calculating GFR&#46; Upon analysis of the population characteristics from our study&#44; we observed that all of our patients were diabetics&#44; with a mean age of 74&#46;2 years&#44; and 59&#46;2&#37; had a GFR of 45-59ml&#47;min&#47;1&#46;73m<span class="elsevierStyleSup">2</span>&#44; meaning that they were far from the characteristics of the population of the MDRD study&#44; in which only 6&#37; of patients were diabetics&#44; with a mean age of 51 years&#44; and chronic renal failure at a mean GFR of 40ml&#47;min&#47;1&#46;73m<span class="elsevierStyleSup">2</span>&#46;<span class="elsevierStyleSup">26</span></p><p class="elsevierStylePara">Some guidelines also establish the possibility of using serum creatinine as the reference method for prescribing ADO &#40;1&#46;5mg&#47;dl for men and 1&#46;4mg&#47;dl for women&#41;&#46;<span class="elsevierStyleSup">2</span> Creatinine is not currently considered a good parameter for measuring renal function &#40;KDOQI&#41;&#59; in addition&#44; the percentages of patients included in each stage of renal failure would vary considerably when compared to using MDRD as the reference method&#44; decreasing the potential number of patients that could use metformin&#46;<span class="elsevierStyleSup">27</span></p><p class="elsevierStylePara">The search for a new equation that would facilitate a better and more accurate GFR in different populations and patients with a GFR&#62;60ml&#47;min&#47;1&#46;73m<span class="elsevierStyleSup">2</span> led the U&#46;S&#46; National Institute of Diabetes and Digestive and Kidney Diseases to develop a new equation in 2009 &#40;<span class="elsevierStyleItalic">Chronic Kidney Disease Epidemiology Collaboration</span> &#91;CKD-EPI&#93;&#41;&#46; This formula uses the same variables as the MDRD-4 and allows for a better estimate of GFR in patients with a GFR&#62;60ml&#47;min&#47;1&#46;73m<span class="elsevierStyleSup">2</span>&#44; which decreases the rate of false positives and improves drug prescription and the use of contrast dyes&#46;<span class="elsevierStyleSup">28</span></p><p class="elsevierStylePara">Later studies in different study populations appear to confirm these data&#46;<span class="elsevierStyleSup">29&#44;30</span> The recommendations for using metformin in patients with a GFR of 30-60ml&#47;min&#47;1&#46;73m<span class="elsevierStyleSup">2</span>&#44; as expressed in consensus documents&#44; guidelines&#44; studies&#44; and medical practice&#44; suggest the possibility of modifying the technical data sheet for metformin&#44; not only in terms of contraindications for its use in patients with renal failure&#44; but also regarding the use of creatinine clearance as a parameter for measuring renal function&#46; We understand that this is a complex and costly process in which scientific associations should play a greater role&#46; New evidence&#44; studies&#44; experience&#44; and better understanding are necessary to change the recommendations and contraindications established for a drug&#46; We should also conduct studies in patients with renal failure&#44; who are normally excluded from clinical trials&#44; in order to fully understand this issue&#46;</p><p class="elsevierStylePara">We conclude that metformin&#44; a drug recommended by various consensus documents and guidelines for the treatment of patients with DM&#44; is a safe&#44; useful&#44; and cheap ADO&#46; However&#44; its current technical data sheet&#44; a document establishing legal constraints&#44; contraindicates its use in patients with creatinine clearance &#60;60ml&#47;min&#46; Although no randomised studies have been performed in populations with renal failure&#44; meta-analyses and retrospective and observational studies suggest that metformin can be used with caution&#44; instructing the patient&#44; and reducing the dosage in patients with a GFR of 30-60ml&#47;min&#47;1&#46;73m<span class="elsevierStyleSup">2</span>&#46;</p><p class="elsevierStylePara">Currently&#44; creatinine clearance has been replaced by MDRD as the method of choice for estimating GFR&#44; although it underestimates GFR in patients with GFR&#62;60ml&#47;min&#47;1&#46;73m<span class="elsevierStyleSup">2</span> and is not validated for all populations&#44; including many of the patients that we see on a regular basis&#46; The nephrological community should develop formulas for estimating GFR with greater accuracy in all types of patients&#44; as well as standardise the technical data sheets for drugs in terms of reference parameters used for measuring renal function&#46; We believe that scientific associations&#44; the ministry of health&#44; and pharmaceutical laboratories should review the potential modification of the technical data sheet for metformin&#44; with the goal of allowing health professionals to work within the legal framework established for this drug&#46;</p><p class="elsevierStylePara"><span class="elsevierStyleBold">&#160;</span></p><p class="elsevierStylePara"><span class="elsevierStyleBold">Conflicts of interest</span></p><p class="elsevierStylePara">&#160;</p><p class="elsevierStylePara">The authors affirm that they have no conflicts of interest related to the content of this article&#46;</p><p class="elsevierStylePara">&#160;</p><p class="elsevierStylePara"><a href="grande&#47;11244&#95;16025&#95;29768&#95;en&#95;t1&#95;11244i3&#46;jpg" class="elsevierStyleCrossRefs"><img src="11244_16025_29768_en_t1_11244i3.jpg" alt="Characteristics and differences between the three patient groups according to origin"></img></a></p><p class="elsevierStylePara">Table 1&#46;
