 3  Diabetes 2 months after starting I developed hot flushes which continued to worsen over the 12 months until it became unbearable and severely disrupted my sleep. Even after stopping side effects did not improve. My gynaecologist said, as I was postmenopausal for many years, I am unable to reproduce enough oestrogen to build levels up again. So now I have endometriosis and andemyosis from the HRT which has still not settled my hot flushes The GP put me on too high a dose causing extremely low BP leading to falls which led to tearing both rotacuffs and a fractured toe. Doctors should have to complete a course on new medication before they presrcibe F 69 12 months

 3  Lower A1C This drug significantly increased my urination frequency. Very easy to become dehydrated. But, because of volume depletion through urination, it lowered my blood pressure significantly enough so that I was able to discontinue one of my blood pressure meds. Had weight loss of 6 lbs. I think this was mostly due to water weight. Haven't had a1c check yet. M 63 21 days

 1  For weight loss and energy Horrible lethargy and nausea. I only took one dose and felt shaky and lethargic. A few hours later, I threw up several times. Couldn't keep any food or drink down. I was suspicious of this drug, but felt pressured by my cardiologist to take it. I should have listened to my own voice and not taken it. Thankfully, it was only one dose. I hope it didn't cause any permanent damage. F 53 1 days

 4  To Lower A1C So far, so good. Definitely increases urination frequency. Had a low blood sugar issue when I began the med, while switching from glimiperide to Jardiance. We will see what happens in April when I test my A1C. Stay tuned... F 61 1 months

 4  To lower A1C and Blood Sugar Definitely helps lower sugar, curb appetite. I had no real side effects initially. Then month 6-7 I had really achy joints and genital itching worse than any yeast infection I have ever experienced. I had to stop taking to solely because of that. Itching has eased up and is almost gone. I wish I had been able to stay on it. It seemed fairly effective otherwise. Additionally my cost with insurance until I meet my deductible is $560. So it is very expensive depending on the time of year and type of insurance you may have. F 45 7 months

 4  Diabetes Can feel dizzy at times, especially when it's very warm out and playing golf. No other side effects noticed. Lowered A1C initially (with Metformin), however, over the last year it's no longer having the desired affect. My doc suggested Rybelsus...we'll see. M 65 3 years

 1  Type 2 Diabetes Increase of urine. Horrible joint pain I can hardly pick up a coffee cup, open a soda can, hold my iPhone, burning in my wrist, hands and fire arms. Sore on the side of my tongue very painful I can hardly eat. I am unable to get from my reclining chair and desk chair (at work) without all the pain. Over the weekend I was literally moving like a 80 yr old body because of the pain. As for improvement on sugar not much at all. I did let my Drs office know. I never miss work last Thursday 8-26-22 I had to leave early because I couldn’t take the pain. I am taking off 8-30-22 off to get labs done and see my Dr Immediately. I NEVER take off for anything unless I am deathly ILL. BEWARE of this drug I do not recommend it at all!!!!!! F 58 90 days
