Metformin is widely known as an antidiabetic agent which has significant gastrointestinal side effects, but nightmares and abnormal dreams as its adverse reactions are not well reported.<jats:italic> Case Presentation<\/jats:italic>. Herein we present a case of 56-year-old male patient with no known history of recurrent nightmares and sleep disorder, experiencing nightmare and abnormal dreams directly after consumption of 750\u2009mg extended release metformin. He reported his dream as an unpleasant experience which awakened him at night with negative feelings. The nightmare only lasted for a night, but his dreams every night thereafter seemed abnormal. The dreams were vivid and indescribable. The disappearance and occurrence of abnormal dreams ensued soon after the drug was discontinued and rechallenged. The case was assessed using Naranjo Adverse Drug Reaction (ADR) probability scale and resulted as probable causality.<jats:italic> Conclusion<\/jats:italic>. Metformin might be the underlying cause of nightmare and abnormal dreams in this patient. More studies are needed to confirm the association and causality of this findings.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1155\/2018\/7809305","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2018,1,17]],"date-time":"2018-01-17T18:34:19Z","timestamp":1516214059000},"page":"1-3","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":5,"title":["Nightmare and Abnormal Dreams: Rare Side Effects of Metformin?"],"prefix":"10.1155","volume":"2018","author":[{"given":"Theo Audi","family":"Yanto","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Internal Medicine Department, Faculty of Medicine, Universitas Pelita Harapan, Jalan Jendral Sudirman Boulevard No. 20, Lippo Karawaci, Tangerang, Banten 15811, Indonesia"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-1189-8453","authenticated-orcid":true,"given":"Ian","family":"Huang","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Faculty of Medicine, Universitas Pelita Harapan, Jalan Jendral Sudirman Boulevard No. 20, Lippo Karawaci, Tangerang, Banten 15811, Indonesia"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Felicia Nathania","family":"Kosasih","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Faculty of Medicine, Universitas Pelita Harapan, Jalan Jendral Sudirman Boulevard No. 20, Lippo Karawaci, Tangerang, Banten 15811, Indonesia"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-1270-0261","authenticated-orcid":true,"given":"Nata Pratama Hardjo","family":"Lugito","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Internal Medicine Department, Faculty of Medicine, Universitas Pelita Harapan, Jalan Jendral Sudirman Boulevard No. 20, Lippo Karawaci, Tangerang, Banten 15811, Indonesia"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"311","reference":[{"key":"1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1186\/1758-5996-5-6"},{"key":"2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1007\/s11892-014-0478-0"},{"key":"3","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1136\/flgastro-2013-100316"},{"key":"4","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1097\/MCP.0b013e328358bf42"},{"key":"5","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.jsmc.2010.01.007"},{"key":"6","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.3346\/jkms.2014.29.2.243"},{"key":"7","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.diabres.2016.06.013"},{"issue":"8","key":"8","first-page":"617","volume":"16","year":"2010","journal-title":"The American Journal of Managed Care"},{"key":"9","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.7326\/M15-2650"},{"key":"10","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.diabet.2013.02.006"},{"year":"2014","key":"11"},{"key":"12","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1111\/j.1463-1326.2004.00448.x"},{"key":"13","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.4103\/2230-8210.94262"},{"key":"14","first-page":"415","volume":"93","year":"2000","journal-title":"Tennessee Medicine"},{"key":"16"},{"issue":"2","key":"17","first-page":"38","volume":"9","year":"2007","journal-title":"Medscape General Medicine"},{"volume":"61 (10 suppl):s1-8","journal-title":"The Journal of Family Practice","year":"2012","key":"18"},{"key":"19","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.diabres.2017.08.012"}],"container-title":["Case Reports in Endocrinology"],"original-title":[],"language":"en","link":[{"URL":"http:\/\/downloads.hindawi.com\/journals\/crie\/2018\/7809305.pdf","content-type":"application\/pdf","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"text-mining"},{"URL":"http:\/\/downloads.hindawi.com\/journals\/crie\/2018\/7809305.xml","content-type":"application\/xml","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"text-mining"},{"URL":"http:\/\/downloads.hindawi.com\/journals\/crie\/2018\/7809305.pdf","content-type":"unspecified","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"similarity-checking"}],"deposited":{"date-parts":[[2018,1,17]],"date-time":"2018-01-17T18:34:21Z","timestamp":1516214061000},"score":1,"resource":{"primary":{"URL":"https:\/\/www.hindawi.com\/journals\/crie\/2018\/7809305\/"}},"subtitle":[],"short-title":[],"issued":{"date-parts":[[2018]]},"references-count":18,"alternative-id":["7809305","7809305"],"URL":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1155\/2018\/7809305","relation":{},"ISSN":["2090-6501","2090-651X"],"issn-type":[{"type":"print","value":"2090-6501"},{"type":"electronic","value":"2090-651X"}],"subject":[],"published":{"date-parts":[[2018]]}}}
