2 Case Vignette You are seeing a new patient (68 y/o male) in your clinic to establish care. The main focus of his visit is regarding his Type II DM, which he currently takes metformin 1000 mg BID. He states he has been on this dose with no issues for over a year. Labs from today (no change from outside documents 3 months ago) Na = 140 meq/l, K+ = 4.4 meq/l, SCr = 1.6 mg/dl (egfr = 43 ml/min/1.73 m 2 ), BUN = 20 mg/dl, glucose = 99 mg/dl, A1c = 7.0% Which of the following would you do today in regards to the patient s metformin? A. Continue 1000 mg BID B. Discontinue C. Decrease dose to 500 mg BID D. Change to another oral agent 0% 0% 0% 0% A. B. C. D.
