Hi @cehunt57
Yes I spoke to our pharmacist and he confirms and i knew some of these - side effects

Stomach aches/upsets - tired/fatigued/lethargy and peeing more with not so nice odour.

I am told that these will dissapate in 3 - 4 weeks after your body gets accustomed to the medications... i am in my 3rd week now and will wait until i finish a little over a month. I am having all of those symptoms. Fatigue and tiredness are moreso - stomach off and on. I dont want to have to take these for rest of my life with side effects forever lol.

I see my nephrologist on Nov. 3 after having blood tests week of 20th October... and then my own Dr.
Can you ad anything more on this... have you been taking this long?

@franco39 I jumped into this discussion because of the Jardiance topic. I know of it as a medication for diabetes but was not aware of any applications for kidney / bladder. I am diabetic and I have stage 4 chronic kidney disease (CKD). I don’t take Jardiance. I will be seeing my nephrologist on Nov. 2 after doing my labs the previous week. I’ll inquire about Jardiance. Then perhaps we can compare information?
