Dapagliflozin 10mg is a prescription medicine that comes as a small tablet you swallow. A standard box contains 28 tablets (a 4-week supply).
Doctors prescribe it for adults to help lower high blood sugar in type 2 diabetes, and to protect the heart and kidneys in people with heart failure or long-term kidney disease.
Unlike many diabetes pills that work on your pancreas, Dapagliflozin works directly through your kidneys:
Flushes Out Extra Sugar: Your kidneys normally keep sugar in your blood. This pill stops them from doing that, forcing extra sugar to leave your body every time you go to the bathroom to pee.
Lowers Blood Pressure & Weight: Because it helps your body flush out extra water and salt along with the sugar, it can help gently lower your blood pressure and help with mild weight loss.
Protects Your Organs: It takes the workload off your heart and kidneys, helping them stay healthier for longer.
🚨 Warning: In rare cases, this pill can cause a severe condition where your blood becomes too acidic.
Stop taking the pill and get emergency medical help immediately if you feel very sick to your stomach, throw up, have bad stomach pain, feel unusually exhausted, or have fast, deep breathing.
This can happen even if your blood sugar numbers look normal.
Genital Thrush & Hygiene: Because sugar goes into your urine, germs and yeast like to grow around your private parts. Men and women can easily get itchiness or yeast infections. Washing your private area daily helps prevent this.
Drink Plenty of Water: Since you will pee a bit more often, drink plenty of clean water every day so you do not get dehydrated or dizzy.
Tell Your Doctor Before Surgery: If you have an upcoming surgery, your doctor may ask you to stop taking this pill a few days beforehand.
Amount: Take 1 tablet once a day.
How to Take It: Swallow the tablet whole with a full glass of water. Do not chew, crush, or break it.
With or Without Food: You can take it with food or on an empty stomach. Try to take it at the exact same time every day (like every morning).
Dapagliflozin is generally easy to take, but some common side effects include:
Mild yeast infections around the private parts (itching, redness, or discharge).
Urinary tract infections (feeling a burning pain when you pee or needing to pee more often).
Feeling slightly dizzy or thirsty due to mild water loss.
What if I forget to take my daily pill?
Take it as soon as you remember that day. If it is almost time for your next dose, skip the missed pill completely and take your next one at your normal time. Never take 2 pills at once to make up for a missed dose.
How should I store this medicine?
Keep your tablets in their original foil pack to protect them from heat and damp air. Store them in a cool, dry room away from direct sunlight, and keep them completely out of reach of children.
To make sure you get 100% genuine, properly stored medicine, you can order Dapagliflozin 10mg Tablets (28 Pack) by uploading your doctor's prescription directly on Sanlive Pharmacy & Stores. We offer safe handling and fast delivery to your door anywhere in Nigeria.
