Does Forxiga cause back pain?

As the diabetologist explained, potential kidney problems do not manifest themselves in back pain. It is worth considering whether you do not lead a very active lifestyle, work a lot at the computer or phone and do not do exercises strengthening the back and neck and stretching - it is worth taking care of it if you suffer from back pain, and there was no injury, accident. In addition, such exercises will positively affect the sensitivity of tissues to insulin and help maintain normal glucose levels (sugar levels). As for the kidneys, the drug is safe even in patients who suffer from chronic kidney disease and is now believed to have a nephroprotective effect (protects the kidneys). Although this is very rare, back pain is mentioned as a possible side effect of the drug you are asking about. Back pain was reported in ≥ 2% of patients taking dapagliflozin 10 mg and ≥ 1% more often and at least 3 volunteers more than placebo. This does not mean, however, that it is associated with kidney damage and not every patient has to be caused by the drug used.

Hello, I was prescribed Forxiga after a kidney operation and 2 open heart operations and I have been taking it for 3 and a half years but for more than a year I have had terrible pain in my kidneys. The doctors and cardiologists tell me that it can't be Forxiga, but as soon as I stopped it, the pain faded.
I no longer trust Western medicine. They know nothing about it and don't listen to what they are told

hello I'm Mauro, diabetic and I take forxiga, for a few days I have pain in my back, under my left shoulder

My father too, the same thing. Acute pain at night lumbar area radiating to the leg

All the same after two days of treatment I have lumbago like I had before.

I also had back pain and I suspended it

First of all, don't read the comments here, because 90% of them are trolling, even poorly translated

Hello, I took Forxiga for three days and now I have severe pain in my right leg that comes and goes. No medication today, but further pain, goes away temporarily with acupuncture.

I had muscular back pain. could hardly walk.. Horror... Forxiga discontinued back pain away. find the error.

I have the same thing, I have back pain and it's not at all like lower back pain that I've had before. I saw on the leaflet that back pain is one of the side effects of the drug... I hope it won't do anything to my kidneys

Hello, I have also been in pain since I take them. For me, the pain is under the chest pulling back to the shoulder blade. When getting up, looking at lying down and everyday movements.
Family doctor said since I stopped it was correct. Diabetologist I should continue to take them. Was in the emergency room yesterday. No inflammation levels or anything. ECG was unremarkable. I've now gotten ibuprofen with. Doesn't really bring anything, just relief a little.

Hello, my husband experienced the same, literally sleep at night could not, for several days from bed almost did not get up. On the FB group of Diabetics, one gentleman also had such pain. I stopped the drug, after 5 days the pain began to slowly subside, but my husband still hurts and the fitness has not returned.
