Urinary p-cresol

1. Acarbose decreases urinary p-cresol in humans (before: 29.93 mg/day (6.79-75.19); after: 10.54 mg/day (1.08-30.85); P=0.031).

   “Urinary excretion of p-cresol, reflecting its colonic generation rate, was significantly lower after treatment (before: 29.93 mg/day (6.79-75.19); after: 10.54 mg/day (1.08-30.85); P=0.031).”
