Jardiance

Jardiance is a prescription medication that contains the active ingredient empagliflozin and belongs to a class of drugs called SGLT2 inhibitors. It is primarily used to treat T2D (type 2 diabetes) by decreasing blood sugar levels. Jardiance also reduces the risk of heart-related death in adults with T2D and heart disease. It helps prevent hospitalization for heart failure and slows the progression of chronic kidney disease.

Jardiance is FDA-approved to:

• Treat type 2 diabetes (T2D) in adults and children aged 10 years and older
• Lower the chances of cardiovascular death in adults with type 2 diabetes & established heart disease.
• Reduce the risk of cardiovascular death & hospitalization in adults with heart failure, whether or not they have diabetes.
• Slow the progression of CKD (chronic kidney disease) and reduce the risk of cardiovascular (CV) death in adults with CKD.

Jardiance (empagliflozin) works by helping your kidneys get rid of extra sugar from your blood. Normally, the kidneys filter sugar and send it back into the bloodstream, but Jardiance blocks a protein called SGLT2 that does this job. As a result, more sugar leaves the body through urine, which lowers blood sugar levels. This is why Jardiance helps protect both the heart and kidneys, not just control blood sugar.

Follow this Jardiance dosing schedule to effectively manage or treat your condition:

You must follow these Jardiance administration guidelines for effective use:

• Take one tablet of Jardiance once daily. Morning is the best time to take it.
• This tablet can be taken with or without food
• Swallow the whole Jardiance tablet with water. Do not crush or chew.
• Take this medication at the same time every day.
• Stay hydrated while taking Jardiance tablets.

Before starting Jardiance, it’s important to understand these safety warnings:

• Jardiance tablets may cause diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA). This is a very serious condition where too much acid builds up in the blood. Symptoms of DKA may include stomach pain, nausea, vomiting, confusion, and difficulty breathing.
• It can increase the risk of genital mycotic infections in both men and women.
• Rarely, Jardiance has been linked to Fournier’s gangrene. This is a life-threatening infection in the genital or rectal area. Immediate medical attention is needed if redness, pain, swelling, or tenderness occurs.
• Dehydration and low blood pressure may happen because Jardiance increases urination. This can lead to dizziness, especially in older adults, people with kidney problems, or those taking diuretics. Acute kidney injury can occur if dehydration reduces blood flow to the kidneys.
• The risk of hypoglycemia is higher when Jardiance is taken with insulin or sulfonylurea medicines.
• Jardiance may cause lower limb problems, including amputation risk, which have been reported with SGLT2 inhibitors. Patients should check their feet regularly for ulcers, infections, or wounds.

Patients taking Jardiance should follow certain precautions to ensure safe use of the medication:

• This medication is not recommended for people with severe kidney impairment or for those on dialysis.
• Jardiance may increase LDL cholesterol, so cholesterol levels should be monitored during treatment.
• Patients should drink plenty of fluids to stay hydrated and reduce the risk of dehydration.
• Jardiance is not advised during pregnancy or breastfeeding, as it may harm the newborn or fetus.
• Alcohol intake should be limited because it increases the risk of ketoacidosis.
• Jardiance should be stopped temporarily before major surgery to lower the risk of ketoacidosis.
• Jardiance is not FDA-approved for type 1 diabetes and weight loss.

If you forget to take your Jardiance dose, take it as soon as you remember. However, if it is almost time for your next scheduled Jardiance dose, skip the missed one. After that, you can continue with your regular Jardiance dosing schedule. Do not take two doses of Jardiance at once to make up for the missed dose, as this may increase the risk of serious side effects.

If you take more Jardiance than prescribed, contact your doctor immediately. Taking more than the prescribed amount can lead to dehydration, low blood pressure, or dangerously low blood sugar levels (hypoglycemia), especially if taken with other diabetes medicines. If you suspect a Jardiance overdose, contact the poison control center or your healthcare provider immediately.
