Oxygen consumption is depressed in patients with lactic acidosis due to biguanide intoxication

INTRODUCTION: Lactic acidosis can develop during biguanide (metformin and phenformin) intoxication, possibly as a consequence of mitochondrial dysfunction. To verify this hypothesis, we investigated whether body oxygen consumption (VO(2)), that primarily depends on mitochondrial respiration, is depr...
