For Type 2 Diabetes "I have been on this medicine for almost a year. It really does bring your diabetes under control. My A1C has remained a 6 since being on this medication. The downside is I have issues with being too low. While taking this medicine, I experience low numbers at night. So I have to wake up through the night to drink something to maintain good glucose numbers. I have also experienced other side effects such as yeast infections, low numbers, weakness, dizziness, and joint pain. This is a great medicine for keeping your numbers under control, but this medicine seems to be too powerful for me. I have found myself cutting back to a couple times a week taking this medication. Besides the side effects, great medicine!!!"

For Type 2 Diabetes "I started taking this med in Feb 2017. My A1c in January was 10+. It is now Dec 2017, and my last A1c in August was 7.4, and I have lost 35 lbs with no added exercise or diet change. I’m so pleased with this medicine. I’ve also been able to get off my thyroid med, one of my two blood pressure meds, and my antidepressant! The only side effect I’ve had is dizziness, but that has been manageable."

For Type 2 Diabetes "This drug, Glyxambi, has made me lose lots of weight. I have had multiple yeast infections that were the worst ever. It started out okay, but now has caused me health problems. I have been dizzy and falling, with injuries hurting myself. Had to go to the ER, and the doctor says something is going bad with my brain. I will not take another one of these pills again. Glyxambi has put me out of work, and I can't drive. They are the worst pills anyone can take. I don't recommend these. Your life is at risk."

For Type 2 Diabetes "I was only on this medicine, Glyxambi, for a month and a half. I started getting extremely dizzy. After three days of going back and forth with my doctor, he finally changed it. I haven't taken it for four days, and some of the dizziness has subsided."
