I don’t have any information about this, but hope you get some feedback. I understand your concern. Does he have type 1 diabetes?

He has type 2 Diabetes.
He was doing great controlling it. Back in March, he had some fluid retention and the doctor prescribed a diuretic.
He then started having struggles keeping his sugars down. Nothing changing in his diet.
He went back for tests in September and his EFGR had dropped. The only difference being the new drug, I researched the new med, contacted a Pharmacist and was told that the new diuretic could damage the kidneys and interfered with blood sugars (making them rise). He at that time, in September, stopped taking it.
