I have switched from gliclazide to forziga in the 2 months and take in conjunction with alogliptin and metformin.
I am pleased with switch as sugars are now always between 5 & 7 and I've lost over a stone whilst eating normally. By normally I mean not cutting out carbs completely but eating healthy meals which makes me satisfied and not wanting to go munch on biscuits, chocolate etc in between.
My concern though is I have suffered with thrush 2 or 3 times already since switching. So do I continue with forxiga and take the weight loss and controlled sugars and put up with the occasional bout of thrush or speak to GP for alternatives?
