[URL]https://www.diabetes.co.uk/news/2019/jul/nice-recommends-dapagliflozin-as-type-1-diabetes-treatment-98662251.html[/URL] You will notice that although the NICE does mention DKA, it does not warn of the danger that the specific euDKA variant that this drug initiates . There is also no warning about the Fournier's gangrene or the potential cardio problems noted by the FDA regarding use in patients with kidney disease or using loop diuretics where they recommend frequent blood tests and support Note the use of wee stix to measure glucose levels OR ketone levels in the wee are interfered with by this medication and should not be used for control.
