CORRECTIONS

Last issue, Volume 17, No. 3, several errors were inadvertently published.

In one article, titled Metformin Warnings, the author confused the medications Glyset and Glucovance. It is Glucovance, not Glyset, that is part metformin.

In another article, titled Kidney Disease: Prevention, Dialysis, or Transplantation, the telephone number of UNOS, The United Network for Organ Sharing, was incorrectly listed. The correct number to reach UNOS should be: 1-800-292-9548.
