Foxiga 10mg for Severe HF
Forxiga
10 mg has just been added to my meds. Apparently this a new drug for treating diabetes but has shown to help severe HF. I am not diabetic and just wondering if it is OK to take in the morning with my other HF meds. Bisoprilol Furodemide, Eperenone and Entresto( Secubitril Valsartan).

Forxiga. Dapagliflozin. Due to start this drug. Any good? Sides? How does it actually work for the heart? Any improvements?
The information leaflet says it helps diabetes by removing excess sugar in the body thus helping treat that condition. For heart failure it just says it helps protect the heart from getting weaker. It can help patients live longer. But it does not actually say how this works. Can anyone explain? I

Hello everyone. I would like to give a little back history on my health condition. Back in November 2022, I went for my regular blood and urine test. Everything in my blood was great but my urine showed a lot of protein . The doctor put me on a medication called Farxiga. I went back 3 months later

Medication question: Dapagliflozin (SGLt2). I think this is also called farxiga and other names
Hi everyone, hope you all are well. I am doing alright since my first diagnosis back in Nov 2022. My last Creat(about a month agao) was 2.39 with EGFR at 36. Pretty much the same. I was wondering if any one is taking Dapagliflozin. My Neph recommended it and says might help in proteninuria. I

Is anyone else taking this drug for heart failure ? I have ‘severe’ heart failure and already take Ramipril and Carvedilol and have now had this diabetes drug added to the mixture. If it works it is said to be very effective in improving things. I would love to have your opinions. Also do you have

Dapagliflozin (Forxiga, Farxiga). Has anyone been on this drug long term and experienced improvements to heart?
I have recently been to the cardiologist who has stated my ef rate had dropped from 44% to 35-40% which is a small decline but he is hoping over this next year, that the drug dapa will improve things before intervening any further. Has anyone noticed improvements from this drug specifically?

Nephrologist Visit
I saw the nephrologist today and am so glad that I did. First, she is a total sweetheart and spent a lot of time asking questions and really listening to the answers. Then she spent time telling me what she thinks happened and what she thinks will happen in the future. Everything was positive and

Dapagliflozin - Blood sugar problem.
Been on Dapagliflozin 10mg (
Forxiga
) since April 2021 without issues. I am not diabetic and it is used as a drug for heart failure. It does take glucose out of blood into urine. Cardiology always tell me how great it is.

New drug to slow CKD.
I have recently been put on
Forxiga
(Dapagliflozin), this drug is normally used for people with type 2 diabetes. However, from a recent trial, it’s been found to prolong the kidney function of people with CKD, who are not diabetic.
