Usage |
Canagliflozin is an SGLT2 inhibitor drug that lowers blood sugar by breaking down glucose and expelling it through the kidneys. In addition to the good blood sugar control effect, Canagliflozin is most notable for its weight loss effect and few hypoglycemic events, which has broad prospects. On June 9, 2012, according to the results of two phase III clinical trials, Johnson & Johnson's (JNJ) experimental type 2 diabetes drug canagliflozin is superior to Merck's Januvia and another old drug glimepiride in reducing blood sugar. At the same time, canagliflozin has a more significant weight loss effect; and compared with glimepiride, canagliflozin triggers far fewer hypoglycemic events.
