    • ABSRACT - [ Total Page(s): 1 ]ABSTRACTMetformin, which belongs to the biguanide class, is one of the most generally used oral hypoglycemic agents. It has been used for more than 50 years and was approved by the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) in 1994 (American Diabetes Association, 2009) whereas Amlodipine is a long acting dihydropyridine calcium channel blocker, which is used in the treatment of angina to lower the BP (Blood pressure). the aim is to know the effect of co-administration of this two drugs in Wistar rats ...

      CHAPTER TWO - [ Total Page(s): 12 ]The current use of serum Vitamin B12 level relies on several different range points for Vitamin B12 status. Serum Vitamin B12 level under 148 pmol/L are said to be deficient, low/borderline levels are interpreted from levels between 148-220 pmol/L (Mazokopakis and Starakis, 2012). Normal ranges of Vitamin B12 serum range from 220- 800 pmol/L, levels that exceed this are rarely suspicious in cause, although excessive B12 serum may be a marker of myloproliferative disorders (Pernicova and Korbonit ...

      CHAPTER FIVE - [ Total Page(s): 2 ]CHAPTER FIVE5.0 DiscussionMetformin (1,1-dimethylbiguanide) is the most widely used drug to treat type 2 diabetes, and is one of only two oral anti-diabetic drugs on the World Health Organization (WHO) list of essential medicines (American Diabetes Association, 2009). Amlodipine is a long acting dihydropyridine calcium channel blocker, which is used in the treatment of angina to lower the BP. Co-administration of Metformin and Amlodipine have been discovered to lead to vitamin B12 deficiency. Al ... Continue reading---
