Abstract:
The blood sugar level of hyperglycemic animals can be reduced through administration of an N1-phenylbiguanide which is substituted in the N5-position by the group CH2R2 in which R2 is hydrogen, alkyl of 1 to 7 carbon atoms, alkoxyalkyl of 2 to 5 carbon atoms, cyclohexyl or vinyl, and optionally substituted by one or two groups in the phenyl ring. Solid, orally administered pharmaceutical compositions are also described. A typical embodiment is the use of N1-(4-chlorophenyl)-N5-(npropyl)biguanide hydrochloride which can be administered in a tablet, capsule or dragee.
Abstract:
N1-phenyl-N5-isopropyl-biguanide of the formula AND ITS NON-TOXIC SALTS HAVE A GOOD ANTIHYPERGLYCAEMIC EFFECT, WHICH EVEN SURPASSES THAT OF SOME COMMERCIAL BIGUANIDES.
