Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
Q: Would I be able to stop taking this medication?
A: While diabetes is a chronic disease and cannot be reversed, it is possible to go off medications by controlling blood glucose levels with the help of diet and exercise. However, you should not take this decision by yourself and always ask your doctor about the possibility of managing diabetes only through diet and exercise.
Q: How frequently do I need to check my kidney function?
A: It is important to check kidney function after a few months into treatment with this medicine. If proteins are detected in the urine, it may be a sign of malfunctioning of the kidneys and the medication may not be excreted out of the body properly. This can cause toxicity so you should keep a check on kidney function.
Q: Is Justoza M compatible with other diabetes medications?
A: Yes, if prescribed by a doctor, it can be taken with other medications. Only after a thorough examination of the patient's health, diabetic status, tolerance, and needs would the doctor proceed.
Q: What can be done if blood glucose levels drop too low?
A: If this happens, you should immediately ingest a glucose-rich drink or food item to restore your glucose levels. However, you should notify your doctor if this occurs so that the cause may be established and further incidents can be avoided.
