Diabetic nephropathy is one of the most common complications of diabetic microangiopathy,which significantly reduces the quality of life of diabetic patients and is the main cause of end-stage renal failure.As one of the main drugs in the treatment of diabetes mellitus,metformin plays a vital role in the treatment of diabetic nephropathy.In recent years,studies have found that metformin can not only lower blood sugar through a variety of mechanisms,but also prevent diabetic kidney disease from developing into end-stage renal failure.Several studies have found that metformin has clinical efficacy in the treatment of diabetic nephropathy,and drug safety in patients should be evaluated by glomerular filtration rate.This review summarizes the results of the clinical effects and mechanism of metformin in the treatment of diabetic nephropathy,aiming to better understand the therapeutic effect of metformin on diabetic nephropathy,and provide reference for the treatment of diabetic nephropathy.
