I've been on Metformin & Glimepiride for 8 1/2 years. My A1c had been in the low 6's until about 2 years ago when it got to the low 7's. Nothing helped - even Levemer. My doctor added Jardiance to my scripts in Feb. Just got my 1st quarterly blood work. My A1c went from 7.2 to 6.5! My bg rarely goes over 135 unless I eat something that I shouldn't. Sometimes I go for days without going over 100. E...

I got enrolled in the savings program and it would cost me $77.00 every month, cant afford that and it is with the savings card too!! So I actually never got started on it, physician prescribed something else.

I use to suffer from general fatigue but after starting this medication, fatigue is gone. There is a lot of urination but I'm okay with that. I've lost weight without trying and can't wait to see what my A1C results are. I really like this over metformin. Metformin was not as effective. This is great for me.

I am a 49 y/o woman. A1C of 7.0 and already on Metformin 1000mg twice daily. Jardiance prescribed and not only did it NOT help lower my glucose, I have gotten my 2nd yeast infection in the 3 1/2 weeks that I have been on it. Too bad too, because, as promised by my doctor, I have lost 15lbs, without trying. It does make you thirsty and pee a lot, but I have always been ONLY a water drinker.

This drug has fewer side effects than others I have tried. It has controlled my blood sugar effectively and I can't wait until I get my bloodwork done to see if it has lowered my A1C as well.

This has helped me so much. I have back issues and have had to take cortisone for the pain. My diabetes was up the roof. I was put on this plus metaformin. This has been a blessing. My A1C is 6.7 from a 10.1 and along with excercise and eating portions I've gone from a size 12 to a size 7. Yes a lot of urinating but drinking water does that too.

This medication seems to provoke labored Breathing, Pneumonia type symptoms, and a hacking cough. This is the second go around as the first time I went to urgent care, they did testing found nothing and put me on an Antibiotic and later prednisone. after six weeks it cleared up and I tried it again, with the same symptoms which started approximately 1/2 hour after the dose. It also seems to cause Blurred vision within 1 hour after the dose. After any meal it seems to cause sluggishness, dizziness, and some chest discomfort. For all the bad symptoms it is not worth the degree in which it works. A 10 mg/Dl drop when the Bg is over 300 just is not worth not being able to move. Read More Read Less

Following chemo treatments for cancer my diabetes was pretty much out of control. My doctor recommended that I try Jardiance to get it back under control. I've been very happy with the results

I was stuck in the low 7s for A1c readings over a year. Jardiance has lowered my fasting to a consistent 120 and afternoons / evenings to 100 range. This is just the first two weeks though. For those concerned about drinking / urinating, I'll just say if it helps prevent kidney stones (you DO NOT want a kidney stone) by increasing your water intake, etc., than that's just another added bonus.

I was on Metformin 2000 daily..BS was around 130 fasting...I used this drug for 2 weeks and had to stop. It made me urinate every hour night or day and awoke me in sleep every hour. I drank excessive water and had urges to add salt a whole lot to my diet. My urine was always pale or clear and not natural. My urinary track seemed irritated most of the time. This drug as a stand alone did nothing more than Metformin...

My A1C has gone from 7.4 to 6.9 while using this drug in just six weeks. In addition, I have dropped about 8 pounds without trying and I am not obese. My doctor believes that the drug may continue to bring down my A1C even further.

I have been on this for two weeks and my blood sugar has lowered to the lower 100's from 300. I do find myself drinking more and urinating more. That would be the only side effect.

After 8 weeks, I seem to need less attention to what I eat (within reason) and more attention to when I eat.

I think in combination with Glyburide/Metformin it works and lowered my sugar level from 270 down to 170 this morning
