CANAGLIFLOZIN vs TIRZEPATIDE

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

So I am a type 2 diabetic taking Invokamet (Metformin+Canagliflozin). I like to have a drink or two with dinner here and there. ive notied though, that if I am drinking beer I get nauseous 2-3 hours after, but not after wine or liquor. Has anyone else seen side effects such as this?

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.

I've been using Xigduo (metformin with canagliflozin) and I notice that when you eat spicy the capsaicin gets excreted through the urine as well. 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

Update.. my uncontrolled T2 is now under control. I’ve decided to take Mounjaro and I no longer have crazy spikes. So far no side effects. Hey everyone! 👋 My doctor recently gave me two options to help lower my A1C—Ozempic and Mounjaro (Tirzepatide). I’d love to hear from anyone who’s taken either

So I took my first dose of Mournjaro 24 hours ago and I really did not anticipate having side effects so quickly. Most of the day I was okay, but picked up a headache sometime after lunch. I’ve attributed that to possibly not staying hydrated enough, I plan on getting some electrolytes to help with

Recently diagnosed type 2. Have been on metformin since December 1. Have lost about 10 pounds with it but the diarrhea is too much for my system, and i was only at 1000mg extended release once a day. Doc told me to discontinue metformin. Was then contacted by the “weight management” team. They t

It’s amazing how life can turn on a dime. Last week, I was bummed because I had a check up and expected to see improvement in my A1C (blood sugar) after 10 weeks on tirzepatide. Instead, it had shot up into diabetic range. I felt pretty overwhelmed thinking about how I was going to manage yet anothe

So I was diagnosed as diabetic at the beginning of this month. My doctor has been useless. He called me to tell me my blood work showed diabetes and to take metformin for three months and then see him again. That was it. He didn't even tell me what my a1c was or anything. He prescribed me tirzepatid

I am so frustrated! I have been on Mounjaro 12.5mg for about 18 months now, having titrated up from 10mg. I transferred to Mounjaro because Trulicity was not having the same impact as the Ozempic, which I was forced to swap to after my insurance company changed their formulary and Ozempic stopped

Hey so super weird we were looking at her monjaro tirzepatide injection and on the inside of the plastic case for the injection a weird little brown spot has developed and we really just want to know is that normal or is it some kind of a contamination any help would be appreciated I personally have

I just started this meditation 3 weeks ago so far so good my sugar levels are dropping and no metformin yay 😀 if I loose any weight it will be a bonus I’m currently on 2.5 has anyone dropped weight on this mg ?

Pretty much the post title. For those taking a GLP-1 medication, especially those who are well controlled, has taking a GLP-1 allowed you to feel less paranoid about what you eat? For context, Dx T2 last year with A1C of 7.1, potential LADA dx in Feb (C peptide is solidly normal). 1000mg of metformi
