Description

2-Butoxyethyl pyridine-3-carboxylate is a medicine that is used to treat diabetes mellitus. It is an oxygenated derivative of nicotinic acid and has a number of pharmacokinetic properties, including the ability to increase insulin sensitivity. 2-Butoxyethyl pyridine-3-carboxylate is metabolized by hydrolysis in the liver, releasing nicotinic acid and butyric acid, which are then further metabolized by oxidation. This drug also has a number of pharmacodynamic properties, including increasing the sensitivity of cells to insulin. 2-Butoxyethyl pyridine-3-carboxylate also has low energy requirements for its production.
