Diet and lifestyle are an important part of managing diabetes alongside this medicine. These include eating regular balanced meals, limiting sugary foods and drinks, staying active, and drinking enough fluids to stay well hydrated.
Before taking this medicine, tell your doctor about any kidney problems, frequent urinary or genital infections, a history of pancreatitis, or other medicines you take. Drink enough fluids to avoid dehydration, as this medicine can make you pass urine more often.
