Dapagliflozin
Generic: DapagliflozinAdjunct to diet and exercise to improve glycemic control in adults with type 2 diabetes mellitus; reduction of the risk of hospitalization for heart failure in adults with type 2 diabetes and established cardiovascular disease or multiple cardiovascular risk factors; treatment of heart failure with reduced or preserved ejection fraction (HFrEF/HFpEF); treatment of chronic kidney disease (CKD) at risk of progression.
Dapagliflozin works through the kidneys. Instead of forcing the body to use or store excess sugar, it blocks the protein in the kidneys that absorbs sugar back into the bloodstream. The excess sugar is safely flushed out of the body through the urine, effectively lowering blood sugar, reducing blood pressure, aiding weight loss, and protecting both the heart and kidneys.
