About this molecule
Dapagliflozin is a sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 (SGLT2) inhibitor, and it was the first SLGT2 inhibitor to be approved. indicated for managing diabetes mellitus type 2. When combined with diet and exercise in adults, dapagliflozin helps to improve glycemic control by inhibiting glucose reabsorption in the proximal tubule of the nephron and causing glycosuria. Dapagliflozin has been investigated either as monotherapy or as an adjunct treatment with insulin or other oral hypoglycemic agents. Dapagliflozin was originally approved by the FDA on Jan 08, 2014, to improve glycemic control in adults with type 2 diabetes in conjunction with diet and exercise. It was later approved to reduce the risk of kidney function decline, kidney failure, cardiovascular death, and hospitalization for heart failure in adults with chronic kidney disease in April 2021.
