Dapagliflozin
Generic alternative to Farxiga
Dapagliflozin is a medication primarily used to treat type 2 diabetes. It belongs to a class of drugs known as SGLT2 inhibitors, which work by preventing the kidneys from reabsorbing glucose back into the bloodstream. This results in the removal of excess glucose through the urine, thereby lowering blood sugar levels.
How is this medication used?
Dapagliflozin is usually taken once daily, in the morning, with or without food. It's important to follow your healthcare provider's instructions regarding dosage and use. Do not change your dose or stop taking dapagliflozin without consulting your doctor.
What are the possible side effects?
Common side effects include urinary tract infections, yeast infections, and increased urination. Less common but more serious side effects can include diabetic ketoacidosis, dehydration, severe urinary tract infections, and Fournier's gangrene. Contact your healthcare provider if you experience any severe or concerning symptoms.
What are the potential interactions?
Dapagliflozin can interact with diuretics (water pills), insulin, and other medications that lower blood sugar, which can increase the risk of dehydration and low blood sugar (hypoglycemia). It's important to provide your healthcare provider with a list of all the medications you're taking to avoid potential interactions.
