toxicity↓, 25 mg/Kg/day may show a mild sedative effect or drowsiness. The most serious published side effect is reversible peripheral neuropathy
Dose↝, 10 to 50 mg/kg body weight/day has been found to be a safe dose. However, single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in the gene of the enzyme GSTZ1 cause difficulties in establishing a universal dose [409] as noted above.
eff↑, There is strong evidence showing that the association of metformin and DCA has significant cytotoxic effects.
eff↑, To this approach we must add a third compound: a COX2 inhibitor like celecoxib to decrease COX2 expression induced by DCA.
eff↑, the triple association of DCA, metformin and celecoxib, which has never been experimentally tested in patients, deserves well planned phase II clinical trials.
toxicity↝, DCA will never become a stand-alone chemotherapeutic compound. The fundamental reason for this statement is that the drug can only reach micromolar blood concentrations without toxicity and requires millimolar levels to be cytotoxic.
eff↓, DCA should not be used in association with allopurinol, NSAIDs, or flavonoids because they reduce cellular DCA uptake.
