Sorry No is the short answer, I haven't had any problems with this Medication, my dose is 10mg once a day. I have a blood test on Friday just to check Kidney function after a few months on this Med.

I’ve been on 10 mg of Dapagliflozin since October. I have had no side effects at all 🤞🏻

Dear Curryandchips

I am on 10mg and have had no side effects, even the dreaded thrush one,

Have you tried your pharmacist? they will tell you if you are having a reaction with any of your other medication { including over the counter ones and supplements }

Hopefully they can point a finger at something other than the Dapagliflosin as it is an amazing drug in our continued fight { and what a bloody fight it is }

Please take care and keep us informed of your findings

Thanks all. I was pretty sure it wasn't the Dapa but thought its a question worth asking. I will chat with the Doc! Happy Christmas to all.

Sorry, it's another 'No Side Effects' from me. Although I did cut my finger last week and it bled for bloody ages! Worse than Clopidogrel!!

Yes I have, I am on 10mg per day and took it with some of my other meds in the morning. After about a week I had severe stomach pains and the runs for about three weeks. GP suggested I stop for a week. I have been back on it for about two months but now take it with food and the side effects have all but disappeared.

Hi, no not particularly noticed any side affects & I’ve been on it for 12 months, although I have been diagnosed with Non alcoholic fatty liver, so my abdomen is swollen/bloated & I have pain/discomfort all the time.

What does your heart nurse say?

Thats my next stop! I just wanted to arm myself with some facts. Have they given you any treatment for your fatty liver?

Not what you're looking for?
