ALOGLIPTIN vs CANAGLIFLOZIN

I was going to start Ozempic tonight, but I just can't. I went looking to see if there were any tips or tricks to avoid nausea or to get a better idea of how long it lasts and saw that diabetic retinopathy IS an actual (though rare) side effect that might not go away. And you just don't know how muc

I'll probably cross post this to diabetes and endocrinology forums. Thanks for setting up an evidence based endocrine forum, I'll try to contribute. I did some work on the available data on CV outcome trials to date. This is a wordy summary of available trials, but hopefully shed some light on the p

So I'm being treated by the NHS as though I have type 2 diabetes. I also have a mitochondrial mutation that causes Maternally Inherited Diabetes and Deafness, but for the purposes of treatment I am T2. I'm a moderately overweight (not obese) reasonably active woman in my early 30's who also has PCOS

Hello everyone, i was diagnosed with type 2 diabetes earlier this year. I have experienced a blood sugar drop before in my life on a few different occasions.

I have been taking Toujeo for about 5 years now and take it every night along witg alogliptin I am taking 65 units a night of Toujeo and Still i tested at 10.7 on my A1C this last time around.

I take Metformin, Alogliptin, and Empagliflozin. Before that I was taking Pioglitazone instead of Empagliflozin. My blood sugar was fantastic. My morning blood sugar was around 97mg to 115mg even after a hefty meal night before and the A1C was 6.5. Then the VA changed Pioglitazone to Empagliflozin b

I’m just so happy i had to share somewhere. I had my test a couple days ago and got the results, been dreading but it turned out great! The medication (canagliflozin), brown rice and food control has been working the past 2 years. I know i’ll have to continue these for the rest of my life, but know

We went out to the ADA Expo in LA a couple weeks ago and wanted to share some interesting stuff we learned from a seminar on Current and Future Treatments on Diabetes [A few photos] (http://imgur.com/a/pMkDl) [SGLT-2] (http://www.forbes.com/sites/larryhusten/2013/03/29/fda-approves-first-sglt2-inh

I'm male, age 47, 5 foot 8, weigh about 250 pounds. Ever since going on insulin two years ago I've had a hell of a time losing weight. I also have degenerative disc disease and osteoarthritis of the spine which makes exercising difficult, but I am walking for 15 minutes every day after work, and wor

I'm wondering if anyone has started this med and could tell me how they feel about it. I'm a type 1 and it was offered to me to help lose weight. I'm just unsure of how it will change my BG, if I'll be having lots of hypos and if it really will help me lose weight. Any input would be great to hear.

As a man you will end up with a spicy weiner when you pee. I am an extremely spicy eater but I thought I'd share this uncomfortable side effect for all of
