Dear lybrate-user,
I am sure your doctor must have told you that dapagliflozin acts by causing increased excretion of glucose in urine. That is the way it controls your blood sugars. Do not be worried about the urine sugars being high on this medicine so long as your blood sugars are under control. Because of sugar in the urine sometimes there can be irritation in the foreskin region which may need an antifungal cream

Plz take Homeopathy medicine along with this fir good controle and permanent cure. R 40, Gymnema Q, Sygizium jamb Q along with constitutional medicine.

No need to do worry about fasting blood sugar in my opinion.
Your hba1c is well controlled.

1. Martifur Mr. 100 (nitrofurantoin) is a good antibiotic and no need to use levofloxacin. 2. Drink plenty of fluids and re evaluates blood sugars and glycemic control. 3.
