Product Description:
Canagliflozin is an oral medication used to treat type 2 diabetes by helping to lower blood sugar levels. It belongs to a class of medications known as sodium-glucose co-transporter 2 (SGLT2) inhibitors. Canagliflozin works by blocking the reabsorption of glucose in the kidneys, which leads to increased glucose excretion in the urine. This mechanism helps reduce blood sugar levels and can assist in managing diabetes more effectively.
In addition to its blood sugar-lowering effects, Canagliflozin may also have benefits in improving weight loss and reducing blood pressure, which can be helpful for people with type 2 diabetes who also have other health concerns such as obesity or hypertension.
Uses:
Treatment of type 2 diabetes to lower blood sugar levels
Assists in managing blood glucose levels as part of a comprehensive diabetes care plan
