jardiance vs januvia
i recently lost abt 40 lbs which lowered a1c dramatically. my endocrinologist called as soon as she got the results and stopped my lantus immediately. later that week my primary md took me off of januvia and started jardiance.
within days my appetite went to zero with nausea and weakness with a little dizziness. i stopped the jardiance and messaged the doctors to let them know. they are, of course, supportive and we are now monitoring the situation. blood sugar is a little higher but considerably more variable .
anyone else taking jardiance? how is it working for you?
