I am sorry to say that I used Farxiga twice, and each time I had problems. One of the side effects of Farxiga is constant urination, especially ar night. So over a short period of time of a few months, my eGFR went from 44 to 32, I am still trying to recover.

There are 2 types of doses, 5mg for diabetics and 10mg for kidney issues. I took 5mg and was assured by my endocrinologist that this would offer good protection to the kidneys. I had one nephrologist who liked the "statistics" that Farxiga offers, and another who would discourage his patients from taking it. I wish I listened to the latter.

I posed this same question earlier this year. As I recall, one person provided a link to show a patient survey of many problems with this drug.

There obviously are some who find this drug worthy and useful to them. I applaud them if it works in the long run.

Lastly, just because a company spends beaucoup of money on TV ads daily does not mean it has the most effective drug. Always do the research first, and especially review the side effects.
