I just started taking it I wanted to know has it helped anyone else.

It’s ok and is a canaglifosin and metformin combo. The canagliflosin will reduce glucose in the bloodstream by stopping the kidneys from putting it back in the bloodstream once they have filtered the blood. The glucose comes out in your urine. The combo should work well but watch for urinary tract/genital problems. Bugs love sweet urine!!
