Dapagliflozin + Saxagliptin

Uses

How Saxagliptin + Dapagliflozin works Saxagliptin + Dapagliflozin is a combination of two medications: Saxagliptin and Dapagliflozin. Saxagliptin is a dipeptidyl peptidase-4 inhibitor that increases insulin release from the pancreas and decreases the hormones that raise blood sugar levels. This action reduces both fasting and post-meal sugar levels. Dapagliflozin works by eliminating excess sugar (glucose) from the body through urine.

How it Works

Common side effects of Saxagliptin and Dapagliflozin include upper respiratory tract infection, urinary tract infection, and dyslipidemia.

Expert Advice

  • Take it at the same time every day to help you remember to take it.
  • Saxagliptin + Dapagliflozin may cause hypoglycemia (low blood sugar level) when used with other antidiabetic medications, alcohol, or if you delay or miss a meal.
  • Always carry some sugary food or fruit juice with you in case you experience hypoglycemia symptoms such as:
    • Cold sweats
    • Cool, pale skin
    • Tremors
    • Anxiety
  • It may cause your body to lose too much fluid (dehydration) or increase urination frequency.
  • Drink plenty of water and stay hydrated.
  • It can lead to genital fungal and/or urinary tract infections (UTIs) in both females and males, so practice good hygiene.
  • Your doctor will regularly monitor your kidney function before and during treatment.
