Not heard of this and nothing on Google about it being used for heart conditions. Doubt it would help AF.
Hopefully this link works Bob. ☘️nejm.org/
Seems not! 🙄
This drug also sells as FARXIGA among other names, seemingly ☘️
I take canaglaflozin for T2 so a similar drug. Its a kind of diuretic which gets rid of the sugar via the urine. Didn't stop me getting AF is all I can say.
It’s for treating type 2 diabetes. It makes you pass sugar in large amounts in urine.it can help with weight loss but there are side efffects like thrush and uti s. I couldn’t tolerate it .
