Type 2 treatment. Hello everyone, I'm classed as a, "Newbie" on my profile. I'm 62 and been T2 since 2007. I've been insulin intolerant in the past and had a 4 stone weight gain with Insulin. My Endocrinologist started me on a new drug about 18 months ago and is really a fantastic medication. Forxiga (Dapagliflozin) is taken once daily. I take Metformin 2 gramme also and 1.2 units of Liraglutide (Victoza). Since taking Forxiga, I have lost 3.5 stones and my Hba1c readings are steady at 6.5. My daily blood tests are always in my target range of 5><8 and I feel well. Try mentioning Forxiga ,(Dapagliflozin) to your clinician maybe it may help.
