Jardiance for weight loss
Top 8 in Top 8 Things to Know About Jardiance
Although weight loss is not a Jardiance-approved use, it is a potential side effect.
Those taking Jardiance alone or in combination with other diabetic medications in a clinical research lost between 1.8 percent and 3.2 percent of their body weight. Over the course of the treatment, there was a 24-week weight decrease.
In a different clinical trial, those who combined Jardiance and metformin experienced an average body weight loss of 3.9 percent. This investigation lasted 52 weeks.
Jardiance is thought to cause weight loss by assisting the body in losing sugar. Jardiance prevents the kidneys from reabsorbing glucose (blood sugar). The sugar and calories are then excreted in the urine. As a result, the body must process fewer calories, which may result in weight loss.
Jardiance is not an FDA-approved weight-loss medication. It should only be used as prescribed by your doctor. Jardiance should not be used for weight loss or any other purpose without the approval of your doctor.
