Jardiance side effects
Been taking Jardiance for about 4 months along with Metformin ER 2000. Jardiance replaced glimepiride. Elevated blood pressure, lightheadedness, headaches and weakness creeped up on me to the point of being sever. Never had this issue with the previous cocktail of meds which included BP meds with HCT. According to my pharmacist, Jardiance is also a diuretic but works differently as HCT. I suspect it is due to dehydration which is one of the side effects of Jardiance. And dehydration can cause the above side effects. Anyone have similar experience?
, thanks for your question and for sharing your experiences. I hope others taking Jardiance may chime in to share. It does seem like dehydration is a side effect: https://type2diabetes.com/treatment/medications/selective-sodium-glucose-transporter-2-inhibitors#Jardiance. If you haven't done so already, be sure to speak with your doctor about your side effects. You may also be interested in this article: https://type2diabetes.com/living/signs-dehydration.
