Place in Therapy – Monotherapy
• Recent-onset diabetes and mild hyperglycemia (A1c≤7.5%)
• Metformin is preferred
• If intolerance or contraindication to metformin
• SGLT2 inhibitors compared to placebo
•Decreasing A1c
•Decrease fasting glucose

Ferrannini E, et al. Diabetes Care. 2010;33(10):2217-2224.
Place in Therapy – Combination Therapy
• Initial A1c >7.5% – start dual therapy
• Target A1c not reached in 3 months with metformin – add
second agent
• No preferred agent to be combined with metformin
• SGLT2 inhibitors studies have demonstrated improved glycemic
control with combination and add-on therapy
•Metformin
•Sulfonylurea
•Thiazolidinedione
•Insulin

Patient Centered Approach When Considering
SGLT2 Inhibitors
Pros
• Effectiveness independent of
insulin
• Can ↓ A1c by ~1%
• Combine with other oral
anti-diabetics and insulin
• Low risk for hypoglycemia
• Small amount of weight loss
• Small ↓ in blood pressure
11
Diabetes Care 2014;37: S14-79.
Cons
• Adequate renal function
required
• ↑ urinary frequency
• Electrolyte disturbances
• ↑ risk of UTIs and vaginal
yeast infections
• Orthostatic hypotension
• Lipid abnormalities (↑ LDL)
• Cost
Assessment Question
Which of the following is a counseling point to tell a patient being
started on canagliflozin?
A. Will cause significant weight loss
B. Take before the last meal of the day
C. May increase your risk of urinary tract infections
D. Has a high risk of hypoglycemia in combination with metformin
