Dapagliflozin 10 Mg Tabs- GA
₹172.05
Dapagliflozin 10 mg is a prescription medication primarily used to treat type 2 diabetes, and also to reduce the risk of hospitalization for heart failure and the worsening of chronic kidney disease. It is available under the brand name Forxiga and various generics.
Key Information
- Drug Class: Dapagliflozin belongs to a class of medicines called sodium-glucose cotransporter-2 (SGLT2) inhibitors.
- Mechanism of Action: It works by helping the kidneys remove excess sugar (glucose) from the bloodstream through urine, which helps lower blood sugar levels. It can also help reduce the workload on the heart and slow kidney damage.
- Administration: It is typically taken orally as one 10 mg tablet once a day, with or without food, at the same time each day.
- Prescription Only: Dapagliflozin is available only with a doctor’s prescription, and you should not stop taking it without consulting your healthcare provider.
Common Uses
- Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus: Used alone or in combination with other medicines (like metformin or insulin) to control blood sugar levels.
- Heart Failure: To lower the risk of cardiovascular death and hospitalization in adults with symptomatic chronic heart failure.
- Chronic Kidney Disease: To lower the risk of worsening kidney disease, end-stage kidney disease, and associated cardiovascular risks.
Common Side Effects
Common side effects can affect about 1 in 10 people and typically go away as your body adjusts to the medicine:
- Genital fungal infections (vaginal yeast infections or yeast infections of the penis).
- Urinary tract infections (UTIs).
- Increased urination or urgent need to urinate.
- Nausea, stuffy or runny nose, and sore throat.
- Dehydration symptoms such as dizziness or feeling faint, especially when standing up.
Important Safety Information
- Hypoglycemia: If taken with other diabetes medicines (e.g., insulin), it may cause low blood sugar (hypoglycemia). You should carry a source of quick sugar with you.
- Diabetic Ketoacidosis (DKA): A rare but serious condition involving high ketone levels in the blood has been reported. Seek immediate medical attention if you experience nausea, vomiting, abdominal pain, trouble breathing, or unusual fatigue.
- Pregnancy/Breastfeeding: It is not recommended during the second and third trimesters of pregnancy or while breastfeeding.
- Alcohol: Avoid excessive alcohol intake, as it may increase the risk of side effects, including low blood sugar.
Always follow your doctor’s instructions, maintain a healthy diet and exercise program, and monitor your blood sugar levels regularly while taking this medication.
