Study Summary

This study will address the following question: Does nizatidine affect the pharmacokinetics of metformin in healthy volunteers? Recent studies in the Giacomini laboratory have indicated that nizatidine may block metformin elimination from the kidney by inhibiting organic cation transporter efflux of metformin. The investigators hypothesize that the co-administration of metformin and nizatidine will reduce the renal clearance (CLR) of metformin leading to increased plasma concentrations and potential risk for toxicities. Knowledge of the pharmacokinetic interaction profile of metformin with organic transporter inhibitors, such as nizatidine, is important to help develop safer more effective drug therapy with reduced side effects.

Primary Outcome

Cmax and Tmax will be determined from AUC-time curve Glomerular filtration rate (GFR) will be approximated by measured creatinine clearance using the following equation:GFR calculation: GFR = CLcreatinine = (Urinary creatinine \* V) / (Plasma creatinine)
