Usage

Farxiga (Dapagliflozin) is a prescription drug that is used in combination with diet and exercise to control blood sugar in type 2 diabetes mellitus (source). This medication is also used to treat heart failure and in people with type 2 diabetes and cardiovascular disease to lower the risk of going to the hospital for heart failure. Dapagliflozin belongs to the class of medications called sodium-glucose co-transporter 2 (SGLT2) inhibitors. Dapagliflozin works by increasing the removal of sugar by your kidneys. You may help prevent kidney damage, blindness, nerve problems, loss of limbs, and sexual function problems by controlling high blood sugar.

* According to Drugs.com, do not stop taking Farxiga even if you feel better. Do not use with type 1 diabetes. Do not use it if you have diabetic ketoacidosis. Farxiga is not for use to improve blood sugar (glucose) control in adults with type 2 diabetes who have moderate to severe kidney problems because it may not work (source).

It is crucial to take the medication exactly as your doctor prescribes and refer to the package insert. Please consult with your doctor for personalized advice.
