Can Xigduo cause blood sugar to worsen?

Xigduo (dapagliflozin with metformin) is a type 2 diabetes medication that usually lowers glucose levels, so its ineffectiveness or worsening of results may be related to, for example, irregular intake, improper diet, infection, stress or diabetes progression. In some patients, the body needs time to adapt to treatment at the beginning of therapy.

In this situation, if you notice a deterioration in your blood glucose parameters after the start of treatment, consult your doctor – it is necessary to check the parameters of the kidneys, glycated hemoglobin and adjust the dose; Also, do not stop the treatment on your own.

If you are not able to use a stationary visit, I attach a link to the online teleconsultation:
