Changes in HbA1c and weight after 1 year on dapaglifozina added to the previous treatment.SGLT2 inhibitors are becoming a common and useful drug to treat type 2 diabetes.The inhibition of the sodium-glucose co transporters (SLGT2) inhibits also the glucose reabsorption in the proximale tubule and increases the glucose excreted in the urine.Therefore hyperglycemia decreases and so does weight as happens with t...

Introduction: From November 2013 it is available in Spain a new drug to treat type 2 diabetes (DM2): dapagliflozina. The new mechanism of action consists in the inhibition of the sodium–glucose co transporters (SLGT2) inhibiting glucose reabsorption in the proximale tubule and increasing glucose excreted in the urine. Therefore hyperglycaemia decreases and so does weight as a consequence of glycosuria. This is a very convenient side effect since DM2 is highly associated w...
