Just wondering if anyone else takes Jardiance for type 2 diabetes? My doctor started me on it about three weeks ago. Jardiance works by causing you to pee out the sugars -- which means you pee frequently/urgently and need to drink lots of water. The first two weeks went great (other than running to the bathroom all the time) but this week it's like I'm back to my early days of Sjogren's and dry, dry, dry. My eyes have no tears, my mouth is sore, lips burn. I'm trying to decide if it's the new medication or a very severe flare.
Thought I'd ask here first if anyone has used Jardiance.
Thanks.
Yes, I take Jardiance. I do feel like I have a bit more dryness, especially of my skin and hair. I don't think it has affected the usual sjogrens places like mouth and eyes. I'm just having to use a lot of lotion! LOL..
Think maybe you are having a flare up?? I hope it gets better for you.
